Hampers of cakes and buns have been delivered to fire stations across Lewisham by local Muslim women.

Women from Lewisham Mosque delivered the hampers to the Red Watch team at Ladywell and Leee fire stations, a team who were at Grenfell Tower.

The troupe of Muslim women delivered the cakes to the fire station on Wednesday, July 5.

Asma Meer said: “We really want to say thank you the British way and the Muslim, Christian, Hindu, Jewish, Atheist way.

“Our sense of community is very strong in Lewisham and we thank the sisters who started this campaign for this great initiative.

“Thank you again to our emergency services and may you be rewarded for your bravery and compassion.

“As one firefighter said today, when we save a life we do not see the colour or religion - saving a life is saving a life.”
