Young people and staff across Restorative SCS homes recently celebrated Eid, please see how a few of the homes celebrated.
Bridge House
Bridge House staff hosted the second annual lifting of the fast, Ramadan festival on 14th March. Staff from the home, including the manager, F Naveed and also residential support worker, N Akhtar, spent a number of hours throughout the day, cooking up some wonderful authentic Asian cuisine, to mark the important celebration in the Muslim calendar. Young people from the home were also keen to help out with the food preparation and were also joined by the arrival of another young person, from sister home, Ogden Moor.
As part of the celebration of the lifting of fast, and as is the custom, staff and young people ate food on a special mat, seated around on the floor. Young people engaged really well and were keen to understand the different customary traditions, as well as try some of the lovely food.
Young people and staff are already looking forward to next year, although for Faiza and Nat, this was a time for reflection 😊
Supported Accommodation – Zone 1
Kent House & Outreach (Zone 1) Eid party
A lovely day was had by all young people and support staff. A lovely traditional Asian buffet was arranged for our young people who really enjoyed, and a few came back for seconds. The young people really enjoyed their time together at the party and played their favorite music throughout. One of our young people played a song that they had written and sung themselves which was amazing.
Supported Accommodation – Zone 3
Wibsey House, Grove House and Bradford outreach all came together to celebrate Eid and held a party at Grove House. A great evening was had by all, enjoying food and drink. A previous resident of Grove House also attended and had some food and drink.
