Guru Tegh Bahadur Gurdwara -History
Sikhs have been settling in Leicester since the end of the Second World War. The opening of the Sikh Gurdwarasin Leicester, in 1960, reflects the growth of the city’s Sikh population. By 2011, the Sikh population of the city had risen to 14,457, representing 4.4% of the city’s population (compared to 0.8% nationally). This Sikh presence continues to contribute very significantly to the social, political and religious life of the city and is especially evident at the annual Vaisakhi celebrations, attracting thousands of people from across Leicester and the Midlands, to a march through the streets of the city centre.

Even during Leicester's fourth heatwave, the Langar Team sewadaars continue their sewGuru Tegh Bahadur Gurudwara, Leicesterester 🌞🙏
Despite the heat, they carry on preparing and serving Guru Ka Langar with love, ensuring Guru Sahib's tradition continues and that everyone is served!
The roti machine has made a real difference. Compared to the old equipment, it produces far less heat in the kitchen and provides a safer, more efficient way of preparing thousands of rotis each day. This has helped create a much better working environment for our sewadaars, especially during the recent heatwaves.
A massive thank you to all who come out during this weather to support an essential function of the Gurdwara #langar️#sewan#leicester##sikhs#community#Community ... See MoreSee Less
