Carlton Keighley Hosts Community Iftar for Over 200 Guests

Last week we welcomed just over 200 guests to our community Iftar. The event featured beautiful moments, including three of our Year 11 students performing nasheeds, adding a heartfelt musical element as guests from across the community came together to share food.

Iftar, the evening meal served at sunset during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, was open to all members of our school community and their families. Guests were invited to enjoy the meal together, with optional prayers available for those who wished to participate. The meal was offered free of charge, fostering an inclusive and welcoming environment for everyone.

The evening included a voluntary charity collection for Green Crescent Charity, run by former students of Carlton Keighley. This organisation provides essential humanitarian aid to vulnerable populations both in the UK and abroad, allowing attendees to give back while celebrating the spirit of Ramadan.

We look forward to continuing to celebrate the values of generosity, reflection, and togetherness at future community events.
