Muslims celebrating Ramadan from today in Bucks are being reminded by Bucks Council to keep following the rules to keep themselves, their loved ones and their communities safe.
They have also said that if you're attending prayers during Ramadan, please follow the guidelines in place at your local Mosque.
If you want to be fully confident you aren't infectious you can take a rapid test by dropping into one of Buckinghamshire Council's sites in Amersham, Aylesbury, Buckingham or High Wycombe.
Alternatively, you can pick up testing kits to use at home. Visit www.buckinghamshire.gov.uk/coronavirus/get-tested-for-covid-19/get-a-rapid-test for further details.
They have also advised that if you have a an appointment for a vaccination jab over the coming weeks – whether for a first or second dose – please make sure you attend it. The British Islamic Medical Association (BIMA) has said that, as advised by Muslim scholars, taking the COVID-19 vaccine during Ramadan will not affect your fasting.
