Sikh War Memorial

Sikh Troops War Memorial

Project management of the Sikh Troops War Memorial in Leicester.

Working on the planning, design, and implementation of the Sikh memorial in Leicester. Working on the design and  content for the Sikh memorial booklet.

The Sikh Memorial has been designed and installed into order to commemorate the fallen soldiers of the Sikh faith who have contributed towards campaigns of the “British” Indian Army in many global settings including World War 1 and World War 2. Whilst there is an existing commonwealth memorial on Peace Walk, the need to erect a specific Sikh memorial had been chosen due to the major contribution from the Sikh faith in relation to the small number proportionately in India. This is together with representing members of the Sikh faith in Leicester and beyond who have made a sizeable contribution to society. The Sikh community takes part in the annual remembrance commemorations at Victoria Park, Leicester in November each year.
