We are delighted to announce that London Kalibari will be staging this year’s Kali Puja as follows:

Venue: Harrow Arts Centre, 171 Uxbridge Rd, Pinner HA5 4EA.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the surge in cases in recent weeks, we have had to put some safety protocols in place to ensure all those who are attending, including many who are classified as vulnerable, are kept safe.
Hence we would appreciate if the following guidelines can be followed by all those who attend the puja this year.
Please do not come to the venue if you are experiencing any COVID or flu-like symptoms (these can include cough, high temperature, loss of taste/smell etc)
All attendees aged 18+ must be double vaccinated and have also taken the booster vaccine if eligible
All attendees aged 8+ (including those who are vaccinated) must show proof of Lateral Flow Test (LFT) carried out within 24 hours of attending. Proof of negative test will be checked at entrance.
NB: Lateral Flow Test kits can be ordered free of charge from https://www.gov.uk/order-coronavirus-rapid-lateral-flow-tests .
If you cannot use the online service, call 119 (free from mobiles and landlines).
Face coverings must be worn by all those in attendance unless medically exempt. Masks can only be taken off for drinking and eating.
A limited number of disposable masks will be available to purchase at the entrance (50 pence each)
Hands must be sanitised before entering the premises. There will be hand sanitiser available at the entrance.
School-aged children will not be allowed to run around any part of the premises and they must be kept close to their guardians at all times
Attendees must maintain social distance and also keep a safe distance from the main puja areas. Social distance will be maintained during Anjali/Pushpanjali – hence please avoid crowding around the stage.
Access to stage and surrounding puja areas will be limited to key workers/helpers only
Attendees are advised to wrap up warmly as doors may be kept open to maintain ventilation
We want to make this year’s puja an enjoyable experience for all those who are able to join us. Hence your cooperation and understanding will be greatly appreciated this year.
