The aims are to complete the construction of a Welfare Centre, to support the residents of Dandaswara and the broader Kolma Bahakot area, and support the maintenance of the building. Volunteer medical and allied healthcare professionals and gap year students will stay in the building while they work and gain valuable experience and explore Nepal. We seek to provide support in health, sports facilities and better education. During our fourth year of activty, we were able to contribute £6,500 towards the construction (comparable to the £6,000 in 2021122). The building, and kitting out, is now complete. An opening ceremony took place in November 2022 with our Patron, Arun Choudhary, and 3 of the Trustees attending. The building is now ready to welcome visiting medics, and groups.
