Gurjar Hindu Union (GHU)

The Gurjar Hindu Union (GHU) Ltd is 40 years old established minority ethnic led charitable organisation serving Crawley, a town based in the South East of England, near Gatwick Airport.

It is a volunteer led organisation which has established itself as a well run, sustainable organisation. Through prudent financial management and funds raised from the community it serves, GHU owns a building from where it runs a Sanatan Mandir (Temple) and a small community centre.

The needs of the community it serves now demand that GHU move to larger premises and gradually make the step change to employing staff. A suitable site with the requisite planning permission has been identified.

GHU offers range of activities including celebration of all Hindu festivals, daily worship (6 p.m. to 7 p.m.), Elderly Day Care Centre, Gujarati Language Class, Yoga Class, Mental Maths Class, welfare advise and support etc.

GHU offers visits to the Temple and training in Indian way of life and religious appreciation to Schools, Colleges and other institutions.


GHU Latest News

  1. We are entering Navratri Week. The week of glory to the Divine Mother or Maa!

    Let Maa take us, step by step to the top of the spiritual ladder and unite us with the Lord. Let us worship Maa who personifies that aspect of Shakti (strength) which destroys our negative tendencies and pray to Maa Lakshmi to bestow peace and prosperity. Let us worship Devi Saraswati, the universal Mother to lead us to the attainment of knowledge of the Self, not just the knowledge of ‘how to earn a living’, but how to "live" as well.

    WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU FROM 30TH SEPT. AT BEWBUSH LEISURE CENTRE FROM 7.30 P.M. SHARP.

  2. Our Gujarati School has started on Saturdays at 10.15 a.m.

    The fee is left the same as for past four years at £55. Please kindly send cash or cheque payable to GHU with your child soon after the School starts.

    We are looking for anyone who can support us with tablas, harmonium during reciting of Hanuman Chalisa. Can you help? Contact us please!
