South Asian Heritage Trust delivers structured programmes across education, culture, public health and heritage, in partnership with national institutions, community organisations and public bodies.
Working alongside NHS trusts, health bodies and community organisations to strengthen South Asian community engagement in public health, building trust, improving participation and contributing to more responsive, inclusive services.
In 2024 this included listening circles, myth-busting sessions and a community focus during Organ Donation Week in September, in partnership with NHS Blood & Transplant and University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust.
Supporting schools, teachers and education institutions to bring South Asian histories and contributions into curricula, with resources, toolkits and partnerships designed to be practical, accessible and nationally relevant.
SAHT works with educators, curriculum developers and education institutions to ensure South Asian heritage is a permanent, confident presence in the classroom, not a seasonal addition.
Creating and supporting spaces for South Asian cultural expression, from literary events and heritage exhibitions to music, food, youth panels and arts-led community engagement across the UK.
Our cultural programming spans the UK, academic lectures, panel discussions, food festivals, youth-led creative sessions and heritage exhibitions. We work with institutions, artists and community groups to ensure every programme is both high-quality and genuinely community-connected.
Capturing and preserving lived South Asian histories that might otherwise remain unheard. From personal migration narratives to intergenerational community stories, building a growing cultural resource for the future.
Every story submitted becomes part of a living, growing record of British South Asian life, shared on their own terms, in their own words.
Share Your Story →A permanent, curated cultural asset, preserving lived South Asian heritage to inform future generations and reshape national understanding. Not a repository. An active, growing resource.
Archives signal permanence. They signal that an organisation takes its cultural responsibility seriously. The SAHT National Heritage Archive is designed to inform research, support education, strengthen community identity and reshape national narratives.
