The MHWI Social Event this week saw a group of members travel by community bus to the Golden Mile in Leicester.

We first visited Anokhi House of Sarees and had a peruse around their lovely shop. They told us about the history of sarees, when they are worn and showed us the different types. We even got the chance to try some of them on!

Our next stop was Vama jewellers. They showed us around the shop and explained some of the different styles of Indian jewellery and also some of the Indian traditions when the more elaborate jewellery is worn.

After all that we obviously had to have a good mooch around the shops before going to Bobbys restaurant for some delicious Indian food.

Many thanks to Ranju @anokhihouseofsarees, Nilesh of @vamacollectionsuk, the team at Bobby’s and of course a big Thank You to the community bus!
