ABOUT US

In the early 1990's, the Trust was involved in the purchase of two prime sites in Everest Heights, Verulam. The first site was earmarked for the building of a Hindu temple to service the community of Everest Heights and surrounding areas, whilst the second site was reserved for the development of a Community hall and training centre. The rationale being to assist people from all walks of life to become active members of society.

To date the Unicity has passed the plans for the temple and the project has begun.
