Hindu Youth and Sports Council

 

The Hindu Youth and Sports Council is the evolution of the Hindu Council of Birmingham’s Youth section. The Hindu Council of Birmingham Youth (HCBY) was set up in 1991. We play an active role in the promotion and representation of Hindus and Hinduism in Birmingham. This video is an outline of the principles that drive the organisation with an emphasis on the next generation.
