We are deeply saddened by the news of the passing of our beloved Sardar Fauja Singhji🙏, who was a 114 year old British Sikh Marathon Runner. Singh bettered the UK records for the 200 m, 400 m, 800 m, mile and 3000 m for his, claimed, age group, all within a single 94-minute period, but they are not currently listed as records.

His biography, titled Turbaned Tornado, was formally released in the Attlee Room of Britain’s House of Lords on 7 July 2011 by Anthony, Lord Young of Norwood Green and retired British Crown Court judge Sir Mota Singh.

In July 2012, Singh carried the Olympic torch.

He was awarded the British Empire Medal (BEM) in the 2015 New Year Honours for services to sport and charity.

We had the privilege to meet this extraordinary role model few times and each meeting was an intriguing conversation. He was and will certainly be an inspiration for generations to come🙏

We pray for the wellbeing of the family in this difficult time and wish that Waheguru unha nu charna vich niwas bakshe🙏

Vaisakhi at Chelmsford High Street by 🙏

This month, our community Hazuri Sikhs celebrated festival of Vaisakhi- The Sikh Formation Day. Here are some pictures and martial art videos from event.

What is Vaisakhi and Why is it Celebrated?

On 13th of April 1699, Sikh’s 10th Guru Created the distinct identity for followers of Sikhism called Khalsa (meaning Pure). He ordered Sikhs to gather and then called out for volunteers who are brave enough to give up their life for their faith. The five who stepped forward to give up their heads were brought back from a tent in full glory and then were baptized by Guru by performing Amrit Sanchar.

The Amrit Sanchar process was made by pouring pure water in an iron vessel, stirred by Khanda (double edged Dagger) and reciting prayers (3 Bani from Shri Dasam Granth and 2 Bank from Shri Guru Granth Saheb Ji). Guruji’s wife added Batashe (sugar candy) to it, as the one drinking the Amrit will be Powerful, yet they must never forget the sweetness. Thus the Amrit (Holy Water/Nectar) was taken by the Panj Pyares and they became the first 5 Khalsa Sikhs. This same process is practiced even today!

Equality, bravery and selfless service are some of the key values that run through Sikhism and Vaisakhi is a time for us to remember these.
To eradicate the caste system henceforth, Sikhs were given surnames of Singh (Men- Lion) and Kaur (Women- Princess)

To celebrate such a revolutionary day, Hazuri Sikhs of Chelmsford held Langar (free food for all) and Free Wellness Camp for all at Chelmsford and Gatka- Sikh Martial Arts by

We were kindly visited by the MP and Mayor .2022

were honoured to be part of the Commemoration of the 80th Anniversary of VE Day Service on 9th May this year, with Essex Yeomanry and The Royal British Legion

The evet was Led by the Dean of Chelmsford, the service featured readings given by special guests such as .2022 and other personnels. The music was performed by the Cathedral Choir and a procession of standards.

It was an honour to have this opportunity to talk about the Sikh Soldiers and their unmatched contribtion in both the World Wars with those present there!

Some may ask: Why its important to mention & pay respects to Sikhs on VE Day?

Because Sikhs served in the British Indian Army throughout the British Raj and played a significant role in both World War I and World War II.

Sikhs have fought alongside the British Armed Forces for over 150 years. Over 400,000 served in World War One and Two, and there were many regiments of Sikhs who won battle honours and multiple Victoria Cross’. Over 84,000 were martryed and over 100 thousand were injured during the two conflicts.

Known as the Lions of the Great War, during the war they were often called the Black Lions. Sikhs were allowed to use traditional Sikh weapons such as chakrams and talwar swords and it was not uncommon to see the Sikh Holy Scripture, “Shri Guru Granth Sahebji” being carried before a marching Sikh battalion or even on the front lines among the battling Sikh troops🙏

This legacy of valour has carried on to the present day where Sikh’s proudly serve in armed forces across the world and have a Sikh network within the British Army 🪯

“When you go home, tell them of us and say, For your tomorrow, we gave our today”🙏🌺
