Princess Helen Rundeer Singh Ahluwalia
New website, film and exhibition

Over the last few months Sikh historian Peter Bance and Essex Cultural Diversity Project have been unearthing the fascinating story of Princess Helen Rundeer Singh Ahluwalia, who is buried in All Saints Church in Doddinghurst, near Brentwood.

Helen was the daughter of Randhir Singh, the ruling Maharajah in the state of Kapurthala in Punjab, and his third Rani Henrietta Melvina, and lived a short but interesting life.

Thanks to a Community Fund grant from Brentwood Borough Council and National Lottery Heritage Fund, we have now been able to bring you Helen’s story on a new website, film and a touring exhibition.
