Dear All, Thanks Mel for a very useful publication. I was wondering how/what/when to put something out to the staff here and a quickly edited the document you provided and posted on our intranet (with acknowledgement) with an email to all staff to highlight Ramadan. I have already received several complimantary emails and some grateful ones from managers, so well done and thanks!

This year Ramadan will co-incide with our welcome programme for new postgraduate students, and normally during this period we offer welcome lunches and get togethers with students and staff. I have suggested that rather than a welcome lunch, and evening meal is offered (preferably not serving alcohol)and that students should be asked to provide details of any specific dietary requirements. Would this be sufficient, or is there any better practice we could follow?
