The Gurkha Welfare Trust

The Gurkha Welfare Trust is the leading Gurkha charity.

The Gurkhas are soldiers from Nepal who are recruited into the British Army (or the Indian Army), and for the last 200 years have committed themselves to the service of the British Crown. Gurkhas are known to be as fearless in combat as they are good-natured in daily life. To this day, they remain renowned for their loyalty, professionalism and bravery.

Established in 1969, The Gurkha Welfare Trust provides vital support to Gurkha veterans, their families and communities in Nepal. We enable people to live with dignity by delivering essential financial and medical aid and work with local communities to provide access to clean water and education. In the UK we offer advice and support to help the thousands of retired Gurkhas and their families who choose to settle here.

The funds you raise have the power to do incredible things for those we support in Nepal. We'd love to have you run for us, so please do get in touch! 🎽🏅
