The Gurdwara is a sanctuary to nurture the mind.
Everyone is welcome to visit the Gurdwara regardless of their background, beliefs, gender or ethnicity. Sri Guru Ram Das Ji, the 4th Guru constructed the Sri Harmandir Sahib, Amritsar (commonly known as the Golden Temple) with four entrances, signifying that all are welcome.
The Eternal Guru
The Gurdwara was established to spread the teachings of Sri Guru Granth Sahib, the Eternal Guru of the Sikhs, which explains how to meet God during this lifetime. Three key principles taught by Sri Guru Granth Sahib are enshrined in every aspect of the Gurdwara.
Simran – A Focused Practice for the Mind
Seva – Selfless Service done by the Mind and Body
Sangat – Community of Practice
Akaal Takhat
The Gurdwara is governed by the Akaal Takhat, the highest temporal authority of the Sikhs. At Guru Maneyo Granth Gurdwara there is no elected committee; every aspect of the gurdwara is run by Sevadaars (volunteers) who are not paid or remunerated in any way.

An Insight into Your Gurdwara
The Gurdwara was set up by the community, is run by the community and exists to serve the community. This is YOUR gurdwara. Since opening, we’ve been astounded by the number of positive responses we’ve received and the growing numbers that attend each week. It’s hard to describe in words the experiences of those who have benefited from visiting the Gurdwara and how their lives have changed for the better. The video below gives a glimpse into life at the Gurdwara, we hope to see you soon.
Come and Learn
Everyone is welcome to visit the Gurdwara to discover the universal message of the Sikh faith, regardless of their background, beliefs, gender or ethnicity.
We regularly have schools visit the Gurdwara to complement their education in world religions. Children take part in a structured visit that can be tailored to each school’s individual requirements. Visits to date have included: Classroom workshops highlighting key tenets of the Sikh faith, guided tours of the Without Shape Without Form Exhibition, where children explore Sikh history through art, tours of the Gurdwara, including the Darbar (prayer hall) and Langar Hall (free communal kitchen) where children and teachers join the congregation for a meal.
The Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service
GMGG AWARDED – ‘The Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service’ – The MBE for volunteer groups.
With Waheguru’s grace, we are honoured to receive the Queen’s Award for our Covid-19 Food Support Programme.
We accept this recognition on behalf of all Sikhs around the World and the collaborative efforts of all the charities, organisations, faith groups & individuals we had the pleasure of serving with.
This recognition would not be possible without the examples of our forefathers & teachers paving the way for how Seva (selfless service) is done. All credit goes to them and their teachings of selflessness for the betterment of humanity.
