She emphasised the need for greater awareness and understanding of other faiths, cultures, and traditions to promote tolerance and acceptance in society. She also thanked the businesses and individuals who came together to support the charitable cause.

Mayor Brabin thanked the business community for their commitment to charity and community work, which she said was an essential part of Ramadan.
