An 'Experiencing Ramadan' day aimed to bring communities together.
Women’s group, Sisters4Sisters hosted a special iftaar for thirty non-Muslims who were fasting as part of the initiative. Among the guest speakers on the night was Preston MP Mark Hendrick.
Sofia Begum-Ali from the group told us, "It is the second we are hosting this event and it proved to be very successful. Some of the non-Muslims took part last year but it was fantastic to see thirty people of all ages participate this year. This is all part of the inter-faith work we do.
"We would like to thank everyone for taking part and the speakers for their support. A big thank you also to all the team at Sisters4Sisters."
The group raised £260 for charity on the night through donations.
A cheque for £3542 was also presented to charity Human Appeal on the night.
This money was raised by the group through a 5km sponsored walk and a cake sale held earlier in the year.
