'At the moment, we have kept in contact with our community members and most evenings we put on some sort of virtual event, whether that's educational or different types of meetings.'Ĭouncillor David Mellen, leader of Nottingham City Council, said: “I want to wish our Muslim communities a good weekend as they celebrate Eid. I know that for many people in Nottingham, celebrating Eid at this time will be different, however it will be no less special.

'Instead, Muslims are being encouraged to celebrate Eid in the same way as Ramadan, from their homes, and virtually with friends and families. “I want to thank members of Muslim communities in Nottingham who, like the vast majority of local people, have been so attentive to the government guidance on staying home and staying safe.
