Thank you Joanna! :)

I hope I can post a fairtrade product for each day of Ramadan.

I want to encourage everyone fasting to support fairtrade producers, farmers and artisans during this blessed month.

@RobertReschid Looking forward to listening to this @chrislongden after hearing on @BBCRadio4 today - heard about a working class man who was curious about the world & who flourished #Ramadan
But his story was only partly handed down through generations due to national alliances in WW1

Specialist services working in the CJS often work above & beyond the call of duty. At 5pm on Friday, we had contact from a London prison who had not made Ramadan arrangements for residents.
Today we have shopped, packed & are now travelling across the country to a drop off point.
