  Diwali Health Fest

  Mother India, Melton Road, Leicester LE4 5EE. 18.00 – 23.00
  Health Fest – Diwali Dinner & Dance:
  A Celebration of Culture and Community Wellbeing
  Jain and Hindu Organ Donation (JHOD), Fighting Prostate Cancer, and South Asian Health Action (SAHA) are proud to come together to host a special Health Fest – Diwali Dinner and Dance on Saturday, 11 October 2025, at the Mother India Restaurant and Lounge, Leicester.
  
  This unique evening will beautifully combine the joy of Diwali with a vital mission — raising awareness about health and wellbeing in the community. Guests can look forward to a vibrant celebration featuring live music from Music Melody, raffle prizes, free Mehndi, and a delicious Diwali-inspired dinner.
  
  At its core, the event is about more than celebration. It reflects the shared commitment of the three organisations to improving health awareness, encouraging early detection of conditions, and promoting proactive health checks — particularly within South Asian communities, where health inequalities and late diagnoses remain a significant concern.
