Story
Further to a failed attempt at Silver Duke of Edinburgh over 30 years ago, Charlotte, Flo and Annie are regrouping in their walking boots to take part in another walking challenge - On Saturday the 9th of September, they will be joining a group to embark on an epic trek of 45 km across London’s urban jungle to raise funds to build a desperately-needed new hospice in Kathmandu.
Your donations will help alleviate the suffering of thousands of people with terminal illnesses in Kathmandu and the surrounding region. They will also incentivise us to actually complete it and we thank you very much for your support.
The new hospice will have 20-24 beds, including beds specifically dedicated to children in need of palliative care. It will also be a base for rural and urban community outreach programmes as well as a centre of educational excellence for the country.
Project Hospice Nepal is a Rotary-led project with fundraising teams in Nepal, the United Kingdom and New Zealand. Those involved in the project come from across the globe spanning a variety of backgrounds, including many from the medical profession. Project Hospice Nepal is honoured to have Dame Joanna Lumley as its UK ambassador and to have Everest Inn Helping Hands as a partner.
The project is one of the main initiatives supported by The Challenge Fund, a UK registered charity (#1079181). All funds raised through this campaign will be paid by JustGiving directly to The Challenge Fund and ring-fenced for Project Hospice Nepal.
