Today Eastleigh Gurkha Nepalese Association was collecting donation in Eastleigh town centre for the Nepal Earthquake appeal fund.
I met some members of the group at Swan Centre Shopping Centre this afternoon. They told me they will take the donation to Nepal directly to help the most desperate people.
Eastleigh Gurkha Nepalese Association: Earthquake appeal.
It assists members of the Gurkha Nepalese community living in Eastleigh, Hampshire and the surrounding areas of Winchester, Southampton and Portsmouth.
The Association strives to preserve, develop and celebrate the Nepalese identity at the same time as promoting their social inclusion and integration into the wider community.
