NishkamSWAT (Sikh Welfare & Awareness Team) is a charitable organisation based in West London. Our primary function is to unite and transform financially disadvantaged communities by focusing on projects which make a difference to people’s lives in the short term and improve their prospects in the long term. We were founded in 2008 with our first project being a youth club offering regular workshops on substance awareness, informal talks on the Sikh Faith and other faiths and encouraging the children to engage in group discussions and debates on current issues they are facing today such as gang culture, drug addiction, and alcohol abuse.In 2009 we discovered over 200 men sleeping rough on the streets of Southall which then established our "Homeless Project" where we go out to different areas of the UK to feed the less fortunate. In between this we have established many more projects.
