I had a fantastic time watching performances and presenting awards at the annual Nupura School of Arts event held at Aldworth School. Local Councillors Jay Ganesh, Simon Minas-Bound and David McIntyre joined in too.
The South Indian community in Basingstoke makes an incredibly positive contribution to our community: acclaimed restaurants, cultural events like the performances from Nupura students and exceptional clinical expertise brought to our local NHS. Basingstoke remains a great place to live because we are all bound together in our shared British values and take strength from celebrating the diversity of our culture.
