The Wonderful Nepalese Gurkha Association in Camberley

Suzanne and I spent a special couple of hours with the wonderful Nepalese Gurkha Association in Camberley. They meet weekly at High Cross Church in Camberley.

We were very warmly welcomed and we were informed about how the association had recently set up as charity to promote the social inclusion of Nepalese and Gurkha veterans and their families in Camberley who may be socially excluded from society due to limited English language skills, ill health and old age. They provide English training, social and recreational events, whilst continuing to advance the education of the local community about Nepalese Culture.

They would welcome the opportunity to have access to some permanent space in Camberley which would enable them to meet together on a more regular basis and help reduce the affects of isolation and loneliness within their community.

They shared some delicious food and wonderful stories and we thoroughly our time in their company.
