Nepal – Water for school project

At the last club meeting it was agreed to use the £200 legacy from a member and some of the refund from the discontinued Nepal project to pay for an enhanced water supply throughout a 500-pupil secondary school in Nepal.  The school was nominated by our contact on the ground in the Nepal Water and Health Authority.  At present pupils have to bring in their own drinking water.
