Bhumi Pujan – 15th July 22.

Having received the landmark planning decision to build a state-of-the-art crematorium named “AUM” on its grounds in Denham, Buckinghamshire, Anoopam Mission UK initiated the first step with a Vedic ritual – the Ground-Breaking Ceremony on Friday 15 July 2022, in the presence of Guruhari Param Pujya Sahebji, the spiritual head of Anoopam Mission. This was a historic and momentous achievement for the Indian community in the UK. “AUM” will be the first ever purpose-built dedicated crematorium in the UK and Europe to cater to the needs of the Hindu, Jain and Sikh communities.
