Section D Achievements and performance
As with every years we organised three important cultural events Ugadi, Summary of the main Bathukamma and Diwali which are the main celebrated festivals of achievements of the charity Telugu speaking people. These events acted as base for people to during the year interact, children to learn and understand the traditions of Telugu culture. There was lot of positive feedback from the attendees, good food, cultural music, dance and songs all made the vents very successful. These are something which we will carry on. We managed to attract a number of new community members based on our past activities. We have more ambitious plans for the forthcoming years to expand and achieve our goals. The community is growing and we are also supporting other charities in terms of creating a place of worship for Hindus in and around Cambridge
