With the price of food soaring all over the world, Qurbani donations are needed more than ever.
Traditionally, Qurbani is practised by slaughtering an animal, usually a goat, sheep, cow, or camel with one-third of the meat given to the family, one-third to neighbours, and one-third to the poor. However, many families are unable to afford their Qurbani this year and rely on donations from others.
Fortunately, there are a variety of ways Muslims can donate their Qurbani nowadays, such as donating to a charity that can provide Qurbani meat on your behalf. We have broken down a variety of charities in the UK which are offering Qurbani donations for affordable prices.

The charity has been dealing with Qurbani donations for over 30 years and provides hundreds of thousands of families with Qurbani meat every year. Human Appeal also says it sources meat from local farmers with well-cared animals to ensure it's fresh and nutritious for those that need it most.
