Story

Opening Your Heart to Bhutan is a UK-based charity which brings children with special needs joy and the opportunity to build meaningful lives.

Through simple, practical acts of compassion, the charity provides access to safe medical care, disability aids and basic amenities in the isolated rural areas of East Bhutan. It believes in education as a means of empowerment and supports the digging of sewage systems, building of hostels and improvement of facilities at Draktsho, a vocational training centre in Tashigang.

Guy House and Michael Roper are running a half marathon for the cause! Chuck them a few quid to support the charity in Bhutan!

I got injured during training and sadly won't be able to run it myself but will be supporting these fine gents from the sidelines!

About the charity

Opening your Heart to Bhutan, the inspiring brainchild of Bhutan-ordained British Buddhist nun Ani Pema Deki, works tirelessly to improve conditions and life opportunities for impoverished young people in rural Bhutan. They work closely with local highly regulated charities and all money raised goes directly to those in their care.
