Popular food during Ramadan

While Ramadan is a time for fasting, it is also a time for feasting. At sunset, Muslims break their fast with a meal called Iftar. This meal is a time for celebrating with family, friends and community members. It is a time to share food and to give thanks for the blessings of life.

History of Ramadan

Islam is a monotheistic religion that developed in the Arabian Peninsula in the seventh century. Its followers are called Muslims, and they believe in the oneness of God, the prophethood of Muhammad, and the holy book, the Quran. Islam comes from the Arabic word 'salaam,' meaning peace, and a Muslim is someone who submits themselves to the will of God, striving to live in peace and harmony with themselves and the world around them.

What is Ramadan?

Ramadan is a month-long period of fasting observed by Muslims worldwide. It is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar and is considered one of the Five Pillars of Islam. During Ramadan, Muslims abstain from food, drinks, smoking, and other physical needs during daylight hours. The fast is broken each evening after sunset with an iftar meal, and the period of fasting ends after thirty days with the celebration of Eid al-Fitr.

Meet volunteer Nina Healey

During my time at Leeds Beckett, I was involved with a whole range of volunteering opportunities. I originally decided to explore volunteering opportunities in my first year as a way to add to my CV as I had some spare time alongside my studies. As I wanted to work in the heritage sector, I knew I needed to have as much experience as possible on my CV, as it could be very competitive even to get your foot in the door.

Zero Tolerance to Sexual Harassment

When a student asked for ''Zero Tolerance to Sexual Harassment'' on campus, and campaigned for a few weeks, the idea acheived enough votes. Because of this we’ve worked with Leeds Beckett University to ensure that appropriate reporting processes and support is available for victims of any form of bullying and harassment including sexual harassment and violence and the development of a new respectful culture amongst the Leeds Beckett community.

Better Faith Spaces

When a student asked for ''Better Faith Spaces'' on campus, and campaigned for a few weeks, the idea acheived enough votes. This resulted in the SU encouraging the University to improve the faith spaces on both campuses and plans for improvements are now being discussed at the University EDI Committee.  This showed us the power of having a platform where students could advocate for their needs. Have Your Say was designed just for this!

Microwaves on Campus

You asked, we answered! A few years ago, students submitted the idea of installing new microwaves on campus. This idea became extremely popular and resulted in microwaves being made available in the SU Hive venues, Rose Bowl and Headingley canteens. This showed us the power of having a platform where students could advocate for their needs. Have Your Say was designed just for this!

Discover Leeds Mencap

More than 65 years ago, Leeds Mencap was created with the aim of improving the lives of those with learning disabilities in Leeds.Though affiliated with the national Royal Mencap Society, Leeds Mencap is a completely independent charity offering important services and support to children & young people with learning disabilities and their families throughout Leeds and the surrounding area.
