Our Journey


Sanskriti Reading came into existence in December 2007. It was founded by a group of families in Reading who are close friends and shared a passion and a vision to promote the rich heritage of India through various socio-cultural events.

The journey that began with a Saraswati Puja in 2008 gradually grew much bigger and many other likeminded people joined the organisation in its journey over the years and our members are now spread across the UK in Berkshire, Hampshire, Surrey, London, Birmingham and even in Manchester.

Sanskriti Reading was formed with an aim to fulfil certain objectives such as to provide a platform to integrate likeminded individuals, provide a place of instant inclusion of families newly migrated from the sub-continent; share and propagate the rich cultural heritage of India, in various ways, so that the young people of Indian origin growing up in the UK have a deep sense of their roots; lastly and most importantly host charity events donating the proceeds to causes, linked to India and to our present country, the UK.

Sanskriti was delighted to host the 2023 Kali Puja & Diwali Celebrations in a new venue and with a new Protima (Idol). Sanskriti would like to express its gratitude to Mr Manoj Dwivedi and Mr Dipayan Saha who have kindly sponsored our new Protima (Idol). And as always, Sanskriti is indebted to you all for turning up in great numbers and making the occasion a very successful one.
