Team 21 – On the ground

Team 21, are all well….tired but still in very good spirits! They successfully treated 300 patients yesterday, and are now travelling on to the next village in Gorkha. Some medicine is being transported to villages in Gorkha from the Om Health Foundation in Kathmandu. Trucks of “Survival boxes” are due to arrive today by road from Biratnagar, 290 miles SE of Gorkha, journey time of 10 hours!

Telephone lines are not so good and there is no WiFi, so no photos as yet.

It is very reassuring to hear that everyone is well and they are able to provide medical and humanitarian aid to people in some of the most affected villages

Please keep up the amazing support and donations. Team 21 are getting updates from UK whenever we can get info to them. They are motivated by how supportive the whole community has been.

Over the weekend so many events took place and money is coming in from Schools. Colleges and businesses alike. Our communities have really come together to help at a time of great need.

Here are a few photos of :
