On the start of the last (and holiest) ten days of  Ramadan, staff at the Embassy in Dubai gathered for the opening of two multi-denominational faith rooms within the Embassy grounds. 


At the small ceremony to mark the occasion the Consul General Guy Warrington said 'it gives me great pleasure to announce the opening of two multi-denominational faith rooms, particularly during the holiest days of Ramadan. These rooms are available to staff of all faiths to practice their religons '.
