About Us
Our story
Gurdwara Guru Maneyo Granth Sahib is run by the Sikh Sangat Charitable Association Newcastle, established in 2020 to serve the growing Sikh community of Newcastle, NSW. In the early days, the Sangat gathered in one another’s homes for weekly Diwan — building faith, unity and connection.
As the Sangat grew, weekly services moved to Woodberry in 2023, where a weekly Langar Sewa program also began, sharing meals with the wider community. Today the Sangat has a permanent home at 57 Spitfire Place, Rutherford.
