🪔 A Celebration of Light, Hope & Freedom 🪔

Happy Diwali & Bandi Chhor Diwas!

As homes and communities light up in celebration, the Sikh Welfare Council extends our warmest wishes to everyone celebrating.

Diwali and Bandi Chhor Diwas remind us that light can overcome darkness, hope can inspire change, and freedom is a value worth standing for.

May these celebrations bring joy to every home, strengthen the bonds we share, and inspire us to carry forward the values of compassion, kindness and unity.

Wishing everyone a bright, peaceful and meaningful celebration!

🪔 A Celebration o

The Walls May Separate. Compassion Connects. 💛

For individuals navigating the journey towards rehabilitation, moments of connection and belonging can carry profound meaning.

On 4 and 5 November 2026, the Sikh Welfare Council (SIWEC), together with our dedicated volunteers, brought the Gurpurab celebrations to inmates at Changi Prison, creating an opportunity for reflection, encouragement and community connection.

The gathering was made especially meaningful by the presence of the head priests from Central Gurdwara, Katong Gurdwara and Yishun Gurdwara, who led Kirtan and prayers. The sharing of Karah Prasad and Channa further brought everyone together in a spirit of compassion, dignity and mutual respect.

Every act of encouragement matters. Every connection counts. And every individual deserves to be seen for their potential, not solely their past.

🤝 You can be part of that journey.
We welcome compassionate volunteers who believe in the power of support, rehabilitation and second chances.

🪔 A Little Light. A Lot of Love. A Community That Cares. ✨

Diwali and Bandi Chhor Diwas remind us of the enduring power of light, hope, freedom and compassion.

At SIWEC, we marked this special occasion by sharing festive cheer with the community through the distribution of festive cash gifts, healthy goodies and chocolates.

A heartfelt thank you to Health Promotion Board and Istri Sat Sang at Central Sikh Temple (CST) for their generous contributions, and to our wonderful well-wishers who went the extra mile to help distribute the festive gifts.

Every contribution, every helping hand and every thoughtful gesture made this celebration a little more special.

Wishing everyone a blessed Bandi Chhor Diwas and a joyful Diwali! 🪔

TERM 4? ENDED. THE FUN? STILL GOING STRONG! 🎉✨

If there’s one way to wrap up a term, it’s with good food, great company, a little dancing and LOTS of laughter! 💃🪔

Our Sunehri Sahelian and Sunehrey Pal came together for a joyful Term 4 outing, celebrating the end of the term and the festive spirit of Diwali in the best way possible.

From festive feasting to dance and exercise, every moment was a reminder that staying active is about more than keeping moving. It’s about keeping friendships alive, trying new things and making memories worth sharing.

One term ends. The friendships, laughter and good times carry on. ❤️

Here’s to our seniors, who remind us that every season is a reason to celebrate!

💙 You Don’t Have to Figure It All Out Alone.

We’ve been hearing a lot of great buzz about our upcoming RAAH initiative launching this November!

We wanted to quickly clear up a common misconception:

RAAH is a scheduled counselling panel, NOT a 24/7 hotline.

Here is how RAAH is designed to support you:

🗓️ Scheduled Care: We provide ongoing, structured support through booked appointments, rather than immediate, on-the-spot crisis calls.

🤝 Professional Matching: Our Social Worker carefully reviews your request to match you with the right panellist for a dedicated session (available in-person, over the phone, or via Zoom).

⏳ Focused Attention: We are here to give you the vested, uninterrupted time you deserve.

Stay tuned for our official launch! 🚀

💙 You Don’t Hav

🌿 A Little Learning, A Little Competition, A Whole Lot of Togetherness!

From meaningful conversations about cancer awareness to the excitement of bingo and a potluck table full of food to share, our Sunehri Sahelian & Sunehrey Pal gatherings had something for everyone!

There was knowledge to take home, bingo numbers to watch out for, and good food to bring everyone together. More than just an afternoon of activities, it was a chance for our seniors to connect, share stories and enjoy the simple pleasure of being part of a community.

At SIWEC, our Eldercare & Active Ageing Programme is committed to creating meaningful opportunities for seniors to stay engaged, build relationships and enjoy life together.

A special thank you to the NUS students who volunteered their time and brought extra energy to the gathering, making the day even more meaningful for our seniors.

Know a senior who would enjoy being part of our community? We would love to hear from you. Contact us at +65 6299 9234 to find out more about our programme.
