Sikhs and World War One Project Recives Major Funding!

The 100th anniversary of World War One is almost here as 2014 sees global commemorations of the sacrifices of millions.

The UK Punjab Heritage Association (UPKHA) will be doing its part to ensure the Sikh contribution is rightly and properly marked.

With your help they will remember them - look out for more information on how you can help research your own or other's family connections to the war as well as other exciting ways to get involved!

Together with the public's help UKPHA will create some fantastic legacies including a major exhibition, a film and commemorative publication.
