A massive thank you to Jane and Brian, landlords of The Keep in Guildford who hosted their last quiz night on Wednesday for us. šŖ
Thank you so much to everyone who came to support us, bringing bottles of wine and goodies for the raffle, always so generous. We had 34 players in 7 teams and raised the fantastic sum of Ā£501! š
Jane and Brian have hosted these quiz nights for the past 14 years. During this time over Ā£25,000 has been raised! Their generosity and support have been truly remarkable. Not only has The Keep been our venue, but Jane and Brian have put their energy, time and love into making these evenings a resounding success with their home cooked delicious suppers, and Jane a brilliant quiz master. ā¤š Funds raised from the quiz nights have been, in part, to support the education of Addesh who they have sponsored for 13 years and who is now on a full scholarship at a university in Louisiana, USA to study Hospitality Management with accountancy.
The funds raised from the evening will go to support a medical camp with the Siddhasthali Rural Community Hospital in Hetauda which we have been supporting for many years. ā¤
We wish Jane and Brian every success in their new venture āEventsā. I am sure it will be a great success. š„°
Going forward CHANCE will look into the possibility of finding another venue for our quiz nights or possibly hiring a village hall in the Ewhurst/Cranleigh area for an evening. I will keep you posted.

CHANCE for Nepal - Quiz Night
A very special thank you to Jane and Brian and everyone who came to our CHANCE Quiz at The Keep, in Guildford on Wednesday. We had 28 players in 6 teams and raised a brilliant Ā£435. Jane cooked one of her delicious beef pasta dishes with veggie option and salad, which was enjoyed by all. Thanks to Ellan behind the bar, keeping everyoneās glass full.
It fills my heart with gratitude how generous you all are, bringing bottles and goodies for the raffle, buying tickets and taking part. I feel we are a āspecial familyā on these special evenings, all wishing to help CHANCEā¤
The funds raised from the quiz will go to our projects in Nepal which I will be visiting during November.
Jane and Brian have been organising and hosting our quiz nights for over 13 years and through their energy, generosity and commitment we raised substantial funds for CHANCE projects. Massive thanks to them. š„°š
They have sponsored Aadesh Khadka, through his education, an exceptionally clever boy, who after leaving school and college won a full scholarship to a University in Louisiana to study Hospitality Management specialising in accountancy.

SOS to all you wonderful knitters for CHANCE for NEPAL ā¦ā¦ we need more! šš„°
Every year I take as many of these delightful knitted dolls which are given to an eager pair of tiny hands bringing a smile and comfort to the children on the burns unit at the Kanti Childrenās Hospital in Kathmandu. The team at BVS (Burn violence survivors) one of our partners on the ground, when giving out the food baskets funded by CHANCE also give a āGoody Bagā of fun things, and a knitted doll.
Since 2012, thousands of dolls have found their way to Nepal, either for the burns unit or to kindergarten and nursery classes in schools in remote areas. Others find their way on a medical camp organised by Mountain Heart Nepal.
I will be visiting our projects in November. Please email me on info@chancefornepal.org if you are able to knit one or two. They are fun to knit and as you can see everyone is different and you can personalise them as you wish. A little skit for a little girl perhaps!
They are ideal for me to take as very light weight and easy to pack.

August report from BVS (Burns Violence Survivors).
I share five cases from the 12 patients supported in the burns unit. The report from BVS makes tragic reading as so many accidents are easily preventable. In total, 24 food baskets, 14 goody bags, 66 physiotherapy sessions and 52 counselling sessions, (all funded through CHANCE) were provided to the children and their parents.
All names have been changed and permission given by the parents.
Devi is 18 months old and lives with her parents and older sister in Bagmati. Her father is a furniture maker and mother a housewife.
The family are of low economic condition. Dumarās father was at work and Dumar was inside the kitchen with her aunt who was heating butter oil (ghee) to cook a Nepalese stew (jaulo). Her aunt went outside to wash the rice for the stew and left Dumar playing by the kitchen rack when the pot of ghee fell off the cooker and the spilled over her. Her mother heard her cry and rushed in to the kitchen. She poured cool water on the burnt area and rang her husband to come home. They took Devi to the District Hospital in Sindhuli, where she received a dressing only. Due to the lack of specialized burn care facilities, she was referred to Kirtipur Hospital, 85kms away on the same day. Due to the expense of the treatment, she wasnāt admitted as an in-patient so each day her parents took her to have dressings changed. After 3 days, Devi developed a fever and was diagnosed with pneumonia. She was then taken by bus to Kanti Children's Hospital for further treatment. After three weeks she was discharged home and is recovering.
Arun is 3 years old and lives with his mother, grandparents and four siblings. His father is a tailor and works in Kathmandu to provide for his family and sends money home.
Arunās grandfather had brought petrol to heal a goatās wound and Arun mistook the petrol for oil and took it into the kitchen. The petrol caught fire and 5 family members, including his grandmother and four siblings were also burnt in the fire, fortunately only superficially. His mother had gone to fetch gone to fetch water when the incident happened.
However, Arun was burnt severely on his chest, tummy, left leg, ears, chin and mouth. He was then taken to Sarlahi hospital, after one day, due to the severity of his burns he was taken to the National Trauma Centre at Bir hospital. After assessment, his mother and uncle brought him to the Kanti. He is recovering.
Maan is 18 months old and lives with his parents and sister. They moved from Makwanpur into the city for better job opportunities. His father is a sculptor and mother a housewife. Maan was playing with his sister when he suddenly pulled the pressure cooker which was full of pulses off the cooking rack. His father was working upstairs and his mother was doing chores. His sister ran to tell her parents what had happened and they rushed to him and they walked to the nearest medical centre 15 minutes away. Because of the severity of the burns an ambulance was called and he was taken to Patan Hospital. Maan received 20% burns to the left hand side of his face, neck and chest. BVS asked if CHANCE would support him at Paton Hospital with food baskets and a goody bag which we are doing and his treatment is ongoing.
Sonon is aged 9 and from Bagmati. He lives with his parents. After he came home from school he was playing on his own and his mother was cooking. His father works as a labourer and was at work. There is a high tension power line nearby their home and Sonon was using a rod and touched the power line and was electrocuted. His mother heard the sound but was unaware her son was hurt A neighbour saw the incident and ran to Sonon. The mother was in total shock and froze and was unable to go to the hospital so the neighbour took him. He suffered 3% very deep burn to his hand. The families financial situation is very poor and they have needed to borrow money from neighbours to pay for his treatment. He too is in the Patan Hospital and receiving help from BVS and CHANCE.
Kumar is aged 2 and comes from Makwanpur. His father is a taxi driver and mother a housewife. Kumarās mother plugged in an electric kettle and placed it on the table while she went outside to fetch something. Kumar accidently pushed the table and the hot water spilt over him. His mother rushed in hearing him cry out and took him the 55-minute journey to the Kanti Childrenās Hospital. Kumar suffered 15%, second degree burns to his tummy, leg and groin area.
All so very tragic. Should anyone like to specifically support BVS and the amazing work they do, please contact me at: info@chancefornepal.org

Chance for Nepal
I wanted to share this beautiful video, from BVS (Burns Violence Survivors Nepal) our partner on the ground in Nepal since 2007. BVS are a truly courageous, dedicated and fantastic organisation working tirelessly, giving care to children in the Kanti Children's Hospital, the only government Children's Hospital in Nepal.
CHANCE plays a part too, by providing a weekly nutritious food basket, containing 18 eggs, bananas, apples, chocolate biscuits, juice, a type of porridge with protein powder, barley, wheat, and nuts. If the child is too young, then the mother enjoys the contents, she is probably breast feeding and in desperate need of nourishment too. Children need two and a half times their daily calorie intake to aid recovery.
We also fund physiotherapy and counselling for the patient and their family to help come to terms with what has happened which is often life changing.
Every child also receives a 'Goody Bag' containing a toothbrush, knitted comfort doll (I have a team of fabulous ladies who love knitting these dolls which I take out with me each year), A soft toy, Rubik cube, babies rattles, packets of fun stickers, all find their way into a pair of little hands š„°ā¤.
Lastly, we provide an emergency fund of Ā£1,000p.a. to help with transportation, clothes and medicines for the mother and child to return to their village which is often a dayās travel away.š

QUIZ NIGHT
A splendid and recording breaking evening at The Keep, in Guildford last night. A magnificent Ā£645 was raised with 32 people playing in 6 teams.
Jane and Brian, the landlords are incredible the amount of energy and time they give to our quiz nights to make them so enjoyable. Besides organising the questions Jane gives us a delicious complementary light supper. Thanks go to Yianne behind the bar who kept everyoneās drinks top up. š
Great atmosphere and fun on a lovely summers evening. Lovely to welcome two newcomers, Eloise and Sophie whose presence gave an overall win to my teamā¦a first! š
A great boost to our overall amount raised were 5 dashing young men, top hats and tails and a beautiful lady who after a fabulous day at Ascot popped into The Keep for a drink in the garden and most generously donated Ā£135 to the evening. š
The funds raised from last night will go to Aadesh, who have sponsored his education in Nepal for over 12 years. Aadesh, has won a scholarship to study in Louisiana, from August, a wonderful opportunity for him. Having completed his 1st semester at the prestigious GATE College in Kathmandu he will join the 2nd semester of year one in Hospitality Management specialising in accountancy in the US. This is a four-year course. We will be following him with great interest.

CHANCE funds a teacher's salary, and has funded a water tank, toilet block, desks, whiteboards, books and stationary over the years. There are 87 students, 52 girls and 35 boys aged from 2 to 13.
This year brings 19 scholarships, for academically bright children who are unable to pay the fees.
Some children walk up to 2 hours to reach school each morning and the same home after a busy day!
