and give back to India, the country that gave the world Yoga
What is Yoga for HOPE?
Yoga for HOPE is a month long campaign throughout June raising money to support the holistic wellbeing of boys and girls across our programmes in Kolkata. This is your opportunity to support life-changing work and give something back to the country that gave the world Yoga. Whether you are a Yoga novice, practice regularly, or are a Yoga teacher, you can get involved!
Om Yoga Awards Winner!
In recognition of our work with children in Kolkata and our Yoga for HOPE campaign, we were delighted to be named Favourite Yoga Charity at the Om Yoga Awards 2024.
