Last Wednesday there was a reception at Number Ten Downing Street marking the occasion of the Muslim festival of Eid al-Adha.
I had the honour of being invited again this year by the Prime Minister who hosted the event and spoke at the reception, and I had the opportunity to bring a couple of guests from the Northampton Muslim community.
There was a great atmosphere with people from all over the country and all walks of life coming together to share this important occasion in the Muslim faith.
