Wellingborough District Hindu Association

The Hindu community has a long history in Wellingborough with the first settlers coming to the town from 1960 onwards. As the community grew regular events were organised and celebrated in local schools. A group of community volunteers started the Wellingborough District Hindu Association (WDHA) in the early 1970s. A constitution was adopted which laid the foundation for the management of the Association. Subsequently, a building was purchased to convert it into the first Hindu Mandir in the county.
