The Life of Hindus in Britain

What do we really know about the different communities of Asians living in Britain, in particular the Hindus?

The OCVHS British Hinduism Oral History Project was officially launched at, the Indian High Commission, London on Tuesday, 27 March. Those attending included the High Commissioner himself, Members of Parliament, noted academics and prominent members of the Hindu religious and business community.

A research project conceived and developed by the OCHS to record the experiences of Hindus who have settled in Britain.

The project ran from 2000–4 and involved conducting and recording interviews with Hindus who migrated to Britain.

The BHOHP received Heritage Lottery funding and the results of this ground-breaking work is being made accessible to scholars and researchers.
