Help us to build a bigger and better building.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh!

With utmost humility and devotion, we, the Belfast Sangat, are reaching out to you with a heartfelt request for support in building a kitchen at our Gurdwara Sahib in Belfast.

Our Journey So Far

In the year 2000, Belfast City Council kindly provided the Sikh community with a 3-bedroom house, which became our first Gurdwara Sahib. This space faithfully served as our place of worship every Sunday, and became a spiritual home for Sikhs in Belfast until 2023.

With Guru Sahib Ji’s blessings and the collective effort of our small Sangat, we were able to purchase a shop property in 2017 for £170,000 to establish a permanent Gurdwara. However, due to limited monthly income and the size of our community, we could not begin renovation work until 2023.

Last year, by Guru Ji’s grace, we successfully renovated and divided the new building into:

Darbar Sahib (prayer hall)

Langar Hall (community dining area)

However, there is still no kitchen in the new premises.

Current Challenge

At present, we continue to cook Langar at the old council-provided building—just four houses away—and transport the food to the new Gurdwara. This setup is not sustainable.

Recently, the Council has placed usage restrictions on the old property and may reclaim it due to the ongoing housing crisis. This creates an urgent need to construct a kitchen onsite at the new Gurdwara.

What We Need

We have received quotes for essential renovation work at the new Gurdwara site, which includes:

A fully equipped kitchen for Langar preparation

A small room for the Granthi Singh

Outdoor storage for Sangat shoes

How You Can Help

Your kind donation—no matter how small—will help us continue serving the community through Langar and Sikh teachings. Every pound will go directly toward building this vital facility that ensures our Gurdwara remains a place of spiritual nourishment and community service.

We humbly invite you to be part of this seva and support the Sikh community in Belfast as we grow and serve.

“Recognize the entire human race as one.” – Guru Gobind Singh Ji
