"We extend a warm welcome to all our devotees"
Sri Selva Vinayagar Temple is one of the most innovative Hindu Temples of its kind. Since our opening in 2004 we have developed an unparalleled approach to serving the Hindu community in Redbridge, London, whilst also contributing and supporting the multi-cultural and diverse country that we live in. We have always been focusing on providing the best facilities we can for our devotees. In order to meet the developing needs of our community we have refurbished our building and the MAHA KUMBABISHEHAM took place under God's blessings on 04.06.2021.
About us
Sri Selva Vinayagar Temple was started in 2004 by the Late Mr Selvarajah. He wanted to ensure that there was a Temple in the borough where he lived so that he, along with the thousands of Hindu devotees living here could go to a Temple close to home.
Since 2004, the Temple has steadily grown, inviting a wide range of Hindu devotees who attend prayers on a daily basis.
Following the completion of 12 years, the Renovation Project was started on a grand scale, with stones arriving from India. This project is now completed under the blessings of God with the help of our devotees and volunteers. We would like to invite all devotees to offer their prayers at the Temple and take the blessings of Pillayaar.
Our new hall is built on the 1st floor of the temple and is available for hiring. Please contact us for more information regarding this.
