I'm raising £100000 to build a greater Gurdwara Sahib for the Sadh Sangat and the local & wider community of Preston.
Organised by Guru Nanak Gurdwara Singh Sabha
Story
Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa | Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh
Guru Nanak Gurdwara Singh Sabha is the oldest Gurdwara Sahib in Preston, Lancashire, UK. Established in 1966, the Gurdwara Sahib has been a special place of learning and worship for Sikhs community and alike.
Situated in the heart of the city centre and close to the university, the Gurdwara Sahib has served both the international students and the homeless community in Preston. Over the past decade the demands from the building have grown however, the community has been restricted due to costs of the project and the state of the building.
During the Gurpurab's (traditional celebrations), weddings and larger events, the Sadh Sangat have to make the use of the car park (see photo) to accommodate the Langar service. The larger hall in the building cannot be used due to asbestos present in the roof and the condition of the room.
However, the issue of having an asbestos roofing has now been rectified and the new Divaan Hall (once completed) is envisaged to be two times bigger than the current one. This would allow the current Divaan Hall to be used as the Langar Hall.
Therefore, we are humbly requesting your donations and contributions towards the upcoming internal and upgrade work. Please forward this appeal to others in your network to help build the building a safer and more open space for worship and community gatherings.
