The British Indian Awards presented by business advisory and accountancy firm, BDO LLP will be an evening of celebration and recognition, rewarding the continuing strength of the British Indian community, recognising those who thrive, evolve and capture the multicultural spirit of Great Britain.

With nominations flooding in from all over the UK the prestigious award ceremony which is being held on the 17th of May at the St. Johns Hotel in Birmingham is shaping up to be full of some the top names in business, politics, professional and various other industries.

The British Indian Awards are not solely focused on recognition, but will also be a platform to raise funds and awareness for a children’s charity in India, Pratham UK.

Pratham UK was seeded in Mumbai by UNICEF and Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai in 1994 with a mission to ensure "every child in school and learning well".  www.pratham.org.uk
 

Pratham works with village communities, governments, corporate and volunteers to provide a model that is economic, scalable and does not replicate government infrastructure. At its peak, in 2008-2009, the Read India campaign run by Pratham covered 305,000 out of the 600,000 villages of India and reached over 33 million children across 22 of 28 Indian states.

 “Pratham is very delighted to be associated with this prestigious event and hopefully this will help us raise awareness about our cause in the midlands which we have long regarded as a potential support base; hopefully this will be the beginning of a deep friendship with the people of Birmingham”, said Vinati Sukhdev, Executive Director of Pratham UK.

 Amit Arora, Business Development Director of event organisers Oceanic Consulting commented “We are delighted to be working with a charity that helps educate children. Giving children a chance to learn well so they can go on to build a great future for themselves is a gift, and we are honoured to be involved in supporting Pratham UK to achieve this goal”.

Join Vaisakhi: New Year Celebrations

Exclusive from AsiansUK.com - The UK Asian Social Hub!

 

Vaisakhi : Sikh New Year celebrations

 

Handsworth Park
Sunday 28th April – 12pm -6.30pm.
FREE

 

 

One of the world’s largest Vaisakhi celebrations will be returning to Handsworth Park to mark the Sikh nation’s collective birthday.

Bringing a festive atmosphere to Handsworth Park, there will be live music, entertainment, Punjabi food and craft stalls. The traditional Langar – free vegetarian feast – will also be on offer.

There will be an area for worship (Darbar) which will be an important focal point, open to all communities to visit and understand the Sikh faith.

As well as the celebrations in Handsworth Park there will be two processions, one starting from the Baba Sang Gurdwara in Sandwell, and the other starting from the Ramgarhia Sikh Temple (Gurdwara) in the Jewellery Quarter.

At the head of each procession is the Guru Granth Sahib led by five Sikhs dressed in ceremonial costume to represent the five original Panj Pyare who were the first to join the Sikh order over 300 years ago.

 

The processions are due to arrive in the park at 1.30pm (Jewellery Quarter) and 2.00pm (Sandwell).

Car parking will be provided at Handsworth Leisure Centre for Disabled Badge Holders.

There will be an exclusion zone in operation around Handsworth Park and rolling road closures along the procession routes. Roads will be closed approximately one hour before the start of the procession and will re-open once the procession has safely passed through and the roads are clear.

The event is alcohol free and no smoking, and visitors are not allowed to bring dogs into the festival area.

 

The Vaisakhi celebration is organised by the Council of Sikh Gurdwaras in Birmingham with support from Birmingham City Council and other sponsors.
