Attendees were encouraged to donate non-perishable food and money to help Halifax Community Fridge’s work to ensure those in need do not go hungry.

Headteacher Sarah Tindal expressed her gratitude towards all those involved.

"The community iftar embodies the true essence of our community - unity, compassion, and support for one another,” she said.

"We are immensely grateful to our sponsors and attendees for their overwhelming support towards this noble cause."
