Supporting students: Ramadan

Posted on 21 April 2021

Find out about support for students during Ramadan, including a meal package and prayer rooms on campus.

The month of Ramadan is the holiest month of the Islamic year and takes place between 13 April and 12 May this year. Muslims abstain from any food and drink between dawn and sunset on each day of this month. 

Commercial Services have created a meal package for students during Ramadan that provides 16 evening meals and 15 breakfasts for the period of Ramadan (Monday to Friday) starting from Wednesday 21 April until Wednesday 12 May.

Read our information on Ramadan, its purpose and significance, and the provision that we are making to support our Muslim students and staff observing this holy month.
