FAQs

• What should I wear to a Ramadan event?
  If you’re observing Ramadan, feel free to attend the event wearing traditional or Islamic clothing like an abaya or a thobe! Whatever you feel comfortable in.
  If you’re coming along to find out more about our community, come as you are, everyone is welcome!
• Can I ask questions? I don’t want to overstep or say the wrong thing
  There are no wrong questions. Lloyd’s is a safe space where everyone can be themselves and we encourage attendees to ask away to build their knowledge and understanding.
