At this difficult time for so many, Milton Keynes Hindu Association, as it has previously – notably during the covid-19 period, continues its efforts to provide support in many ways to the community of Milton Keynes.
In keeping with the above aim, particularly during this Festive Season, MKHA this week made a donation of a large variety of essential food items to MK Food Bank which we hope will help ease the financial burdens faced by many. The donation was greatly appreciated by the worthy local organisation. See letter of acknowledgement below.
MKHA wish you all the Season’s Greetings and a very Happy New Year.
“Wednesday 18th May 2022 will always be one of the most memorable days of my life. Veena and I were privileged to attend the Queen’s Garden Party at Buckingham Palace and it was indeed a day full of sunshine, lots of colour and a chance to see and meet some of the Royal family. We also had a chance to share our goals and achievements with some of the many guests who were also present at the event due to their selfless service to the community
Veena and I will always be indebted to MKHA for giving us this wonderful opportunity to serve the community. ”
On Wednesday 11th May 2022, Rikesh Raichura and his wife Anita had the pleasure of attending a garden party at Buckingham Palace hosted by HRH The Prince of Wales and by the Duchess of Cornwall.
In the words of Rikesh (our past Trustee)
We were humbled to be nominated by the Lord Lieutenant of Buckinghamshire and High Sherriff of Buckinghamshire for services to Milton Keynes Hindu Association and the wider MK Community, in particular for serving in various positions over the past 12 years, Including as Secretary, Vice President and most recently Trustee and for leading the highly successful Shiv Katha by Giri Bapu, the MK50 MKHA Mela in Campbell Park featuring Navin Kundra and various other events and projects such as the first ever MKHA Holi Colour Festival, the 108 Jamunajini Loti Utsav and more recently playing a significant role in the Covid Support Program..
The event, with all it’s grandeur and splendour was not at all ruined by the typical British Summer weather – where even though we were soaked to the bone, we very much enjoyed mixing with High Society. We were very lucky be able to have a short conversation with HRH The Prince of Wales whom afterwards shook Anita’s hand.
We are truly grateful to MKHA and the Lord Lieutenant and High Sherriff for affording us this honour and allowing us to represent MKHA at the Palace.
