Great work out in Nepal in very difficult conditions by the Gurkha Welfare Trust. Many of the staff are Gurkha Veterans supporting the work to look after Gurkha veterans and widows living in the remote regions of Nepal.
#gurkhas#veterans#Nepal
Through disastrous monsoon rain, we are there.
Through COVID-19 restrictions, we are there.
Over 50 years ago we made a promise to look after Gurkha veterans & widows.
No matter what obstacles are in our way, we do our utmost to fulfil the promise we made all those years ago.
