Duvet Donation Thank You

THANK YOU to everyone who donated, helped, supported, smiled and shared. It was an amazing evening and there are so many beautiful foot soldiers of Dhan Guru Nanak out there!!! From the beautiful sangat we learnt about the essence of seva, the truth of humility, the sanctity of selflessness, the power of love and the overwhelming desire of the sangat to engage in positive change.

Thank you so much to Harps Sanghera from Willsons Solicitors, Bill Mato and Leamington Spa sevadars from Dharam Seva Recs who travelled in the snow to deliver their donations and supported us all week! Thank you to the OSPG for helping to organise and supporting on the day. Thank you to the many sevadars who supported with smiles and love . Leicester Sikhs for continued unity and support alongside the many Leicestershire Sikh Alliance reps. The lovely ladies from Women's Aid Leicestershire Limited were very grateful for all the kind donations. These will make their way to many valuable refuges on Monday morning. #positivechange
