About Us
Nepali Culture Centre UK
The Dharmadarshan Cultural Centre UK was established in South-West London on 22 October 2025 (Ghatasthapana, 6 Asoj 2082 BS) with the aim of strengthening harmony, fraternity, and coexistence between the Nepali and local communities in the UK. South-West London is home to communities of diverse ethnicities, languages, and traditions, each with their own religious and cultural festivals and values. The Centre was founded to provide a common platform for these diverse religious and cultural traditions.
The Centre was conceived by renowned Nepali religious storyteller and scholar of the 18 Vedas and Puranas, Guru Pandit Kuver Subedi, in collaboration with the Nepali community in the UK. Meanwhile, a grand religious gathering held in London on 31 May 2026 officially named it the Nepali Culture Centre UK.
