Gifting hats, gloves, and scarves this winter
Winters in Nepal can be bitterly cold, with temperatures often plummeting to a chilly sub-zero. We help Gurkha veterans and widows prepare with a Winter Allowance.
Nearly 4,000 Gurkha veterans and widows receive our Winter Allowance as an annual gift on top of the monthly financial aid delivered by us to them thanks to donations from our supporters.
In the past we have distributed blankets, thermal flasks, and warm jackets. This year, our pensioners will receive cosy hats, gloves, and scarves.
These seasonal essentials will help Gurkha veterans and widows stay warm during harsh winter nights in the Nepali hills.
Give the gift of warmth this winter
Just £20.45 could provide four Gurkha veterans in Nepal with hats, scarves, and gloves to keep them warm this winter.
