Families gathered in celebration today to mark the end of Ramadan.
The Sefton Multicultural Centre, found at SING Plus Resource Centre in Seaforth, is home to a large Islamic community in South Sefton and welcomed around 150 people today for the Eid religious holiday. Eid marks the end of fasting during Ramadan and is a time of celebration for the Islamic community.
Chairman of the group Munzi Ali, from Waterloo, said that Eid is a time for family, food, celebration, and maybe even a few presents. Munzi said the turnout for today's prayers is a testament to the strong and growing Muslim community in Sefton.
