Plans for a Hindu temple in Northampton first mooted in 2008 are still very much alive according to a team of fundraisers as they launched a week of activities to whip up interest in the scheme last week and included a parade.
The Indian Hindu Welfare Association (IHWO) were given planning permission to build a new temple on land off Lings Way in Lumbertubs in 2012, after the proposals were first reported four years earlier.
The new facility, which would be known as the Northampton Kutumb Centre and would cost around £12 million, will also provide room for sports, leisure, and educational activities.
Though talk of the plans appeared to have gone quiet since an open meeting in January 2014 - momentum is gathering again behind the scheme.
