We celebrated the end of Summer in style at Global Village Doddinghurst, with storytelling, circus, live music, dancing and more at this special event, inspired by Helen Rundeer Singh Ahluwalia of Kapurthala, the Indian Princess buried at All Saints Church in the village.

Audiences came along from near and far to hear live music from the Rajasthan Heritage Brass Band, enjoy acrobatics from Circus Raj and UK African Acrobats; be transported to far off places with African storyteller Usifu Jalloh; and throw some shapes with Jaymini’s Bollywood Dance. There was also Henna Hand Painting with Jity Bajaj, and an Indian food pop-up. Rav Singh from the Little History of the Sikhs also shared the story of the Helen Rundeer Singh Ahluwalia of Kapurthala, the Indian Princess buried at All Saints Church in the village.
