So please dig deep and donate now.

On the 22nd of October I shall be going to Nepal to do a 6 day trek to raise funds for disabled children in Nepal.  These children live in the New Life Centre Kathmandu.  Many of the children have become disabled due to horrific accidents.  Because life is so hard in Nepal young children are often left to look after even younger children whilst their families work on the land.  it is very common for these children to roll into fires or to be scalded by boiling water.  The villages are very remote and medical attention is difficult to access even if it can be afforded, as a consequence many straight forward injuries become infected and then crude amputations take place.

Once a child can no longer contribute to the family income the financial strain becomes too great and children are often abandoned in the streets to fend and beg for themselves.  At the New Life Centre the children are able to access the medical treament they require and are then able to attend school.  It is hoped that once the children achieve a good level of education they will then be able to work and live independent lives.

 

Currently the Nepali Children's Trust are renting an expensive but run down house in Kathmandu, the money we are raising is going towards completion of a purpose built home on land which has already been purchased and the first stages of the building has been completed.  We now need to finish the building and add the touches that will make this a home.

I know many of you have already been very generous and have donated cash and time to events but this is my last push to try to increase the sum I have raised so far to over £3,000.  Every single pound counts so please don't think It's not enough, all amounts will be very gratefully received and will go directly towards improving the lives of these children.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.   JAN XXXXXXXXX
