Editorial: End of an
Era |
|
 As
we slide helter-skelter towards the
end of 2009, I have an "end of
an era" feeling - indeed, 2010
will see the end of the "noughties".
Was it a good decade for you? My feelings
are mixed. Yes, I have had a terrific
year personally - I've met The Queen,
The British Prime Minister, The President
of India and Shilpa Shetty (not sure
which one I was most excited about!).
I have also received a lot of attention
which has been gratifying.
 But,
this year has also been the first
when I have been to more funerals
than weddings...the early Asian immigrant
generation are now leaving us and
the impetus for change has never been
greater. That is why one of the most
satisfying projects for me this year
has been the Hindu Council UK Public
Appointments Strategy. 'Aim Higher'
is its motto and Seema Malhotra, co-project
leader for the Government's work on
this issue, is offering us all a chance
to do just that in 2010.
Wishing you all a Merry Christmas
and a Happy New Year.

| 'Handful
of Henna' by Rani Moorthy: UK Tour January
- May 2010 |
 An
evocative and enchanting story of homecoming,
adventure, fear and joy for a girl and her
mother. For the first time since she was a
girl, Saheeda is returning to her family village
for a wedding. She takes along her teenage
daughter Nasreen who is intensely annoyed
at being away from her friends in England.
For Nasreen this is a place of mixed messages.
A land that is part eulogized, but never fully
spoken about. Where money is sent back to,
but never visited.
