After completing a flag hoisting (Nishan Sahib) ceremony which was held at 11 AM on Sunday 15th August 2010 with prayers, Sikh community Centre Crawley Management Committee and its community members & invited guests held a 'Ground Breaking' ceremony at 11.30 AM on Sunday 20th Feb. 2011 at their Overdene Drive site marking the start of the construction of their gurdwara.
