Preston Gujarat Hindu Society temple on South Meadow Lane, Preston
Preston’s Hindu communities have launched appeals to help the victims of the Covid pandemic sweeping through India.
Today the city’s Gujarat Hindu Society on South Meadow Lane launched its India Covid Support appeal with an initial target of £10,000, and an invitation to anyone who wants to help to donate.
Spokesman Ishwer Tailor, the society’s Vice President, said: “The Society’s fund to help the epidemic in India will go to the Indian Prime Minister’s Care Fund which is already being used for getting oxygen plants built in 150 states and they are also doing other relief work within all states.”
A family have paid a heartfelt tribute to a much-loved Lancashire inter-faith worker who has died aged 65. Vijayantiben Chauhan was an active volunteer of the Gujarat Hindu Society, a prison chaplain and a member of the Lancaster and Lancashire Faith Forums as well as holding a number of roles in Lancashire wide community groups. Vijayantiben helped to organised religious and community events across the county helping to engage with people from all backgrounds and encouraging understanding of all faiths. She came to London in the UK from Fiji in 1977 and went to marry Vijaykumar Chauhan in the same year. They then moved to Preston.
