Heritage Open Day at the Brighton Dome Corn Exchange

If you attended the Annual Chattri Memorial Service in June, you may recall we were advertising an event at the Dome on the legacy and contribution of soldiers from Undivided India to the First World War. This free event is taking place on Sunday 15th September and below is the link for the tickets. We are very excited about this opportunity to further our knowledge and understanding about the soldiers' legacy by having three well respected historians from India, Hull and Brighton!

The Chattri is a memorial built to honour the Indian dead of the First World War. It stands on the Downs near Patcham at the place where Hindu and Sikh soldiers who died in Brighton war hospitals during 1914-1915 were cremated. It was unveiled by the Prince of Wales on 21st February 1921.  



Congratulations to Davinder Dhillon on winning the Points of Light Award  in July 2017 for his outstanding voluntary service for the Chattri Memorial.

Photos From 2019 Service Please feel free to use thse photos in relation to the Chattri Organisation, but if they're used outside of the Chattri Organisation by commercial / professional organisations (e.g. press / newspapers or other organisations and external websites) then they must be credited with the following : "Phil Duffy / MusePhotographic" . This just helps me keep some professional control over the images. Private use (e.g. family members putting images on Facebook) doesn't require any crediting.
