Qurbani 2026 is Officially Sold Out - Pre-order Your Qurbani 2027 Donation Today
“He is not a believer who fills his stomach while his neighbour goes hungry.” (Muslim)
While we prepare for the joy of Eid, it is a heartbreaking reality that right here in the UK, thousands of families are struggling to put food on the table. With the rising cost of living, fresh, nutritious meat has become a luxury that many local families- including refugees and those in emergency housing- simply cannot afford.
Qurbani 2026 Update: We Are Officially Sold Out!
Alhamdulillah, thanks to your incredible generosity, our Qurbani 2026 appeal has reached full capacity and is now closed.
Because of your swift support, our teams are already on the ground sourcing Shariah-compliant livestock and preparing to deliver your fresh meat sacrifices to vulnerable communities across Asia, Africa, and the Middle East in time for Eid.

Why should I give my Qurbani in the UK this year?
Giving your Qurbani in the UK is a powerful way to support your local community. While we often think of poverty as something far away, thousands of families in our own backyard are currently facing food poverty due to the rising cost of living. By donating locally, you ensure that vulnerable neighbours, including the elderly and refugees, can enjoy fresh, high-quality meat on Eid, fulfilling the Sunnah of caring for those closest to you.
Who receives the Qurbani meat in the UK?
Penny Appeal works with local partners and food banks across the UK to identify those most in need. This includes low-income families, survivors of domestic pearl, homeless shelters, and refugees. Our goal is to ensure your Qurbani 2026 reaches people who would otherwise go without a nutritious meal during the blessed days of Eid al-Adha.
Is Qurbani in the UK Shariah-compliant?
Yes. Our UK Qurbani program is strictly Shariah-compliant. We ensure that all animals are healthy, meet the age requirements, and are sacrificed humanely after the Eid prayer according to Islamic principles. We prioritise transparency and quality, so you can fulfil your religious obligation with total peace of mind.
How does my donation help tackle UK food poverty?
Fresh meat is one of the most expensive items for a struggling family to buy. By providing fresh Qurbani meat, you are offering essential protein and nutrition to children and vulnerable adults who often rely on low-cost, processed foods. Your donation provides more than just a meal; it provides dignity and relief to those facing financial hardship in the UK.
Can I give Qurbani in the UK and also abroad?
Absolutely. Many donors choose to split their sacrifice- giving one Qurbani share in the UK to support their local community and another share to a country like Pakistan, Palestine, Sudan or Somalia where the need is also critical. This allows you to maximise your impact across the global Ummah while looking after your neighbours at home.
