In the charity's own words
The Oxford Hindu Temple and Community Centre facilitates Hindu prayer gatherings, represents Hinduism in interfaith organisations, and organises cultural events open to all community members. We're constructing a new temple to serve as a place of worship and community centre. Fundraising events support this project and our spiritual and cultural activities. The new temple will open in 2026.
