A wonderful time was had by all at the Queen's Platinum Jubilee Community Party on Saturday, 4th June, 2022.  Several hundred people attended throughout the day, during which many prominent national and local representatives attended.

The Mayor of Ealing, Councillor Mohinder Midha, opened events, and was first to see the glorious bunting, balloons, and decorations, and then sample the lovely food, cakes, and refreshments available.  Our local police, community police officers, and many people from our community were also in attendance when the Mayor gave a beautiful welcoming speech in honour of Queen Elizabeth II, which set the day off gloriously.

Soon after, our three Lady Margaret Ward councillors attended with the party in full flow. Councillor Karam Mohan, Councillor Swaran Padda, and Councillor Kamaldeep Sahota, all thoroughly enjoyed their time chatting to their community, listening to the wide-ranging music, and savoured the activities in the sun.

Fresh samosas, pakora, fish cakes, chicken wings, sandwiches, and mini-wraps, were all consumed in abundance, along with some fantastic desserts, snacks, and Queen's Platinum Jubilee cakes.

Many of our very supportive local shop owners mingled with everyone, and wowed at the excellent bhangra, reggae, and pop music dancing.  A local magician also astonished the crowd with some amazing card and magic tricks.

Virendra Sharma, MP for Southall, and Dr Onkar Sahota, Ealing and Hillingdon London Assembly Member, were also present. Both gave very sincere speeches about Queen Elizabeth II, sublimely mixed with all guests, and were very entertained by the activities.

The party was a huge success, and we would like to thank everyone involved in planning, arranging, organising, facilitating, and donating, especially the aforementioned representatives, police and:
