        summer days are very long so when ramadan falls in the summer months it is very challenging
        
        there are very few mosques compared to churches in Britain in contrast with other countries
        
        the working day isn't very accommodating to the prayer times and there are often few places to pray in the workplace
        
        Mecca is very far away making Hajj very expensive
        
        the call to prayer doesn't happen in most places in Britain so ina busy working day it can be easy to miss
        
        Islamophobia is very prevalent in British society
        
        Britain is becoming more secular so less people are identifying as religious, meaning peolpe could become less understanding of those who are religious
