CRA celebrating Iftar and Eid with the Chigwell Muslim Community
Representatives of Chigwell Residents Association (CRA), were invited by the Chigwell Muslim Community to the Iftar gathering (breaking the fast during Ramadan) in the Victory Hall on Saturday 15 April. It was an enjoyable evening that brought the communities of Chigwell together. We were happy to be then invited for the Eid celebrations on 21 April, fostering community relations and charity work. CRA secretary Debby Rye and Chairperson of the Parish Council, Celina Jefcoate, addressed the congregation highlighting the different ways Chigwell communities can become involved with local activities, for example by joining the Neighbourhood Watch scheme or Chigwell Residents Association, or enjoying communal tea time in the Community Hall or the nature trails in our area. CRA Chairperson Christine Fuchs then presented the awards to the volunteers of the Chigwell Muslim Community, who had helped organise the Ramadan and Eid events.
