Last year I fasted for a week during the Holy Month of Ramadan to understand more about what so many of my constituents undertake.  But I ended up learning a lot about myself as well.

This year I want to raise money for super charities who do so much for Peterborough.  Unite 4 Humanity is a great Peterborough charity raising money for projects locally and abroad.  They have helped those struggling during COVID-19 with support package and food.  They have stepped up here people have needed them.  They have shown us what a special City Peterborough is. 

Peterborough is home to an estimated 20,000 Muslims.  Ramadan is a big month in my City.  Charity is a key element of Ramadan, as is understanding that, sadly, some people across the world regularly combat hunger and thirst.  

For a week from dawn until dusk, I won’t eat or drink, and shall try to think positively about other people.

Help me raise money for super causes!
