Thousands of Sikhs gathered to celebrate the 540th anniversary of the birth of the founder of their faith.

Sikh temple the Guru Nanak Darbar Gurdwara in Clarence Place, Gravesend, hosted a three day service earlier this month to celebrate the anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev Ji’s birth.

More than 4,000 people attended the service, which the Gurdwara Management Committee’s vice president Swarn Singh says was a wonderful event.
