On 10 November 2023 Stanwell Moor was alive with the warmth and celebration of Diwali 2023. Diwali, the Festival of Lights, is a time of joy and reflection. Diwali (Deepavali) commemorates the victory of light over darkness, knowledge over ignorance, and good over evil.
This was our first celebration and we were overwhelmed by the participation of the village and interest from surrounding communities. Over 300 people attended.
The stall holders included:
- ATOMY by Chelvi
- Amaya Jewellery

- The Sassy Apron
- The Anchor pub
The stall holders included:

Our visitors were treated to traditional performances such as local talent, Sonia Panesar, and engaging activities tailored for all age groups.
