Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This May, our team of 15 trekkers will be walking from Kathmandu to the village of Thangpalkot1 in Nepal to raise money and awareness for the people who were affected by the earthquakes which struck in April 2015. 

I am supporting Maili Tamang, an 80-year-old widow who has been living in a temporary shack for the last three years. Her home is dark, unstable and full of cracks and holes which makes it damp and cold for every monsoon season and winter. 

Each house costs just £1,800 to build. This pays for the building supplies and truck to transport the materials from Nepal's capital, Kathmandu to the village. Once the supplies are at the village, volunteers and fellow villagers spend the next 3-4 weeks building the house.

If we are lucky, Maili will have a brand new house by July 2018 and won't have to endure any more monsoons or winters in her shack.

Thank you for your support! I will have plenty of updates on Maili when I visit the village in May.
