Members of Swindon’s Hindu community celebrated the Holi Festival with a splash of colour over the weekend.

According to tradition, the festival signifies the arrival of spring, the end of winter, the blossoming of love, and for many day to socialise.

Visitors to the Hindu Temple and Cultural Centre in Darby Close were treated to traditional food and live performances from traditional Dhol drum players.
