Batley and Spen MP Kim Leadbeater has hosted a gathering for Eid, at the end of the holy month of Ramadan.
She welcomed friends, supporters, and constituents to her office for food, drink, and conversation.
Eid-al-Fitr is the festival of breaking the fast and follows the month of Ramadan, during which Muslims fast from dawn to sunset. Eid is a time when people gather to share a feast following a month of abstention.
Kim said: “I was delighted to be able to welcome people to my Eid celebration. This is a very special time that people choose to spend with friends, family and loved ones. I extend my warmest best wishes to all those that recently celebrated Eid.”
Among the attendees was Riad Terzic from the Bosnian Cultural Society, who has lived in Yorkshire since fleeing the war in the Balkans in the 1990s.
He said: “In the Bosnian community we are not traditionally included in this, and to be invited is great. And not just this Eid celebration, but all of the activities that Kim is doing including the multiple faith gatherings.”
