(ITV) Part of London’s West End was decked out for the first time tonight with lights to celebrate the start of Ramadan.
The illuminating idea is run by the non-profit organisation Ramadan Lights UK who previously took the lights to Henlys Corner and Trafalgar Square.
On Tuesday night the focus was on Coventry Street which links Piccadilly and Leicester Square.
Aisha Desai, who started the campaign three years ago, said she was inspired to launch her bid for Ramadan lights after seeing the “magical” Christmas lights in the capital.
She said: “As a child, a trip into central London to see the festive lights was an annual treat.”
