Sijal is aged 10 and comes from Dolakha, 180 kms from Kathmandu. He has two brothers who are both at college.
His mother had left a pressure cooker filled with lentils on the stove. She went outside to do some chores and Sijal was playing in the kitchen. He tried to check the whistle on the pressure cooker, which blasted out the hot steam into his face. His mother knew to pour cold water immediately onto the burn. He was then transferred to the specialist burns unit at The Kanti Children’s Hospital, where he is making an excellent recovery.Harka is aged two and lives 500kms from Kathmandu in the mid-west Nepal. His father works the land and mother looks after Harka and his brother aged 8. Harka suffered 2nd degree burns to his legs from a scold burn. He tumbled into a vat of buffalo food which had been left to cool. (So many accidents are caused by food cooked for the buffalo left out to cool.) His mother knew to pour cold water onto the wound and she also applied aloe vera. They were rushed to the local hospital where he stayed for 7 days before being transferred to the burns unit at the Kanti.Harka will need a skin graft which will be funded by The Herrod Foundation through CHANCE. The Herrod Foundation has been supporting CHANCE for skin grafts and medicines for the past 7 years.Karma is 7 months and from the region of of Kanegada 425kms from Kathmandu. She has two older brothers. None of the family has been educated. Her parents are extremely poor, barely surviving. Karma suffered 2nd degree burns to 30% of her little body, her right hand, right leg and right side of her body was severely burned.Her father was talking to a neighbour whilst her mother had gone to cut grass for a neighbour’s cow. Her brothers playing outside. Karma was left alone sleeping by the fire, she woke up and somehow rolled into the ashes of the open fire. Her aunt came running in and she was taken to a nearby heal post, after receiving first aid treatment she was sent back home with herbal medicine. Her wounds then became infected so she was rushed to Magar Sangh Hospital where she stayed for 5 days. Her parents then had to take her home because they could not afford the treatment. That is just too heart breaking. After 20 days, her parents felt compelled to bring her to the Kanti burns unit. The Herrod Foundation is funding her treatment and she had needed her right hand amputated. She will be on the unit for some time.CHANCE has an emergency fund for parents who cannot afford transportation to get home, or for medicines, maybe clothes. Here is such a case where these funds will be used.
I hear from BVS (Burns Violence Survivors) our partner for over 12 years, that the next school presentation will be carried out next week in Dharding where it is noted there have been many cases of burns in the last few months. This is a four hour journey from Kathmandu. I am so pleased they are going there to give talks in schools about the dangers of open fires, electrical burns, what to do if a burn occurs and more.CHANCE for NEPAL has many projects as followers of my page on Facebook know, all of them hold a special place in my heart. That said, of the funds we raise the highest percentage of funding goes to BVS for the incredible work they do at the Kanti Children’s Hospital. We fund the weekly food baskets - physio - counselling - medicines - emergency fund - monthly radio broadcast of the dangers of burns and the school presentations.BVS, in their comprehensive monthly report tell me that 92 food baskets were given out during March and 60 parents of children on the burns unit said they regularly tuned in to the monthly radio broadcast which is heartening to hear.If anyone would like to donate specifically to helping our work with BVS, then please send me an email - info@chancefornepal.org.

Chance for Nepal shared GRASSROOT MOVEMENT IN NEPAL (GMIN)'s album.

4 weeks ago

We are delighted that the new Health Centre has now been completed by GMIN and there is just the matter of fitting it out inside before the first patients will be able to come and be treated. This will be such a welcome relief to many remote villages in the area.

Before, Nepalguni was the nearest large city to seek medical intervention. For a sick adult or child in this remote village, they would have to walk for over 2 hours to the closest motorable road, then a three hour bus journey to the city. They would also incur a nights accommodation as there is only one bus per day.

This is the bridge some of the villagers will have to cross to reach medical help. See the Health Centre in its various stages of construction in the photographs below. Martin Lawson would have been thrilled to see this.GMIN just completed its 2nd Healthcare Center in Purandhara, Dang which is being funded by Chance for Nepal [UK] and they are alsofunding the operating cost for three years. This Healthcare Center will be in memory of Martin Lawson who loved Nepal. We also have another healthcare center in Dhubichour, Dang the building was funded by m25m and the operation cost funded by Chance for Nepal for two years now. ... See MoreSee Less

CHANCE is delighted to be involved with this project. I was quite dismayed to see the state of the children's teeth when I was there for the opening of the school last November. The number of children needing dental work was high, 28% (GMIN explain why below). Someone needs to address this with the owner of the village shop! The thoothbrushes, paste, combs and soap came from Heather’s Yeadon's fund-raising efforts in competing in the Barcelona Marathon, she raised £478 for CHANCE. The remaining £128 will go towards our other projects.Once again we would like to thank Chance for Nepal (UK) for the funds to organise a Dental and Eye Check up in the government school of Bidhyapur, Surkhet where Chance for Nepal (UK) funded the four classroom building in 2017. 166 students were present and were given a toothbrush, toothpaste, soap and a comb each. GMIN CMA and ANM also showed the students how to wash their hands and brush their teeth. Out of the 166 students two of the students needed glasses and 45 students had teeth that needed extra care. The main causes for bad teeth are that the children eat sweets and candies that are available in the village shops and do not brush their teeth regularly. ... See MoreSee Less

In the devastating earthquake which took the lives of around 10,000 in April 2015 which was followed two weeks later by a further earthquake, tens of thousands of people lost their homes and livelihoods. Tragedy struck Triple Gem School in Swoyambhu, Kathmandu where one of the students Ajay Tamang lost his life. It was a Saturday, so no school and Ajay was in the hostel when part of the building collapsed and Ajay lost his life. Ajay was one of the students sponsored through CHANCE for NEPAL by an English sponsor for his education.

His sponsor wished to make a lasting tribute to Ajay and so ‘The Ajay Tamang Memorial Cup’ came into being. The cup is given to the most outstanding student who best supports other students at the school which has 500 students ranging in age from 4 to 17 (nursery to Grade 10).

This year, the memorial cup went to Ramjan who is in Grade 9. Well done Ramjan, being compassionate, helpful, caring and thoughtful is equally as important in life as academia.

Here you can see Ramjan receiving this prestigious award. Lama Kondan, the Headmaster is standing on the right. This event took place last week at the Annual Parents’ Day. ... See MoreSee Less

Anina is aged 9 and comes from Dhading a five hour drive West of Kathamdu . She is in Grade 3 at her village school. She has two sisters.

Her parents were making alcohol, and her mother was boiling water for this. Anina was trying to help her mother and tragically some of the boiling water spilt on her and her upper chest and she was scolded with the boiling water. She will need skin graft surgery. Her mother is staying with her on the ward.

Anamika, co-ordinator of Shenpen, our partner on the ground, visited the burns unit last Thursday to give each child a ‘Goody Bag’. The older children are given a brick game, seen here, they love this game as it takes away some of the boredom whilst they are in hospital. Each child also is given a toothbrush, children’s stickers and comfort doll, all of which I take out with me each year.

When Anamika asked Anina what she likes best at school she said Badminton and what she would like to be when she is older, she replied a dancer.

UPDATE on Sunny who was very poorly when first admitted at the end of January. He is 6 months old and you may remember comes from a large family of 5 children. After the devastating earthquake that hit Nepal on April 2015, Sunny's parents lost everything so they are in temporary accommodation. In order to survive, they must work on the farm everyday. During the coldest winter months his parents left him in the care of his siblings. His sister aged 7 was holding him on her knee but when she went to stand up, accidentally dropped him and he rolled into an open fire. Sunny needed three toes amputated from his left foot, his left leg and hand were also servely burnt.

When Anamika saw him last Thursday, Sunny was looking much healthier and happier then on her previous visit. He will be on the burns unit for another month. Anamika gave him a large cuddly toy which he really liked. He has had two skin grafts to date and will need further surgery for his leg and foot. Thank you Anamika for your time and patience visiting these children and for monitoring this project. ... See MoreSee Less

[BARCELONA MARATHON
WELL DONE HEATHER! A FANTASTIC ACHIEVEMENT!

Heather completed the Barcelona Marathon in 4 hours and 52 minutes.
She raised a brilliant £453.75 including gift aid for CHANCE for NEPAL.

The funds raised will benefit children in the lower school in Vidhyapur, in the region of Dang which lies about 700 kms West of Kathmandu. There are 221 children at the junior school and the dental hygiene I witnessed of many of the children was abysmal. CHANCE funded the building of four new classrooms in 2017 as the school was destroyed in the earthquake of 2015. Since the earthquake the children were having their lessons under canvas. Then GMIN built the school in the autumn of 2017 and I was invited to open the school last November. In my address to the whole assembly, I highlighted the need for better dental hygiene at this school and promised to do something about it. Now we are, thanks to YOU Heather!

We are going to give each child a bag containing a toothbrush, paste and comb. Two nurses from the Healthcare Centre in the Dang region where CHANCE funds the running costs, will be visiting the school to carry out a dental hygiene programme. Hopefully this will extend to the senior school 500 metres away. This is how the funds you raised will be used.

A massive thank you. Barbara] #Events ... See MoreSee Less

CHANCE is delighted to be involved in the new Health Centre in Purandhara in the Dang region , 600kms West of Kathmandu. This will be our second Health Centre in the region.

In June 2016 at one of our fund raising events in London with our Patron, Joanna Lumley, I was introduced to Gilly Lawson who told me how much her late husband Martin had loved Nepal and its people and how he had travelled extensively in Nepal. Gilly said he would have loved to help and by her funding this new Health Centre in his memory it is a fitting tribute to him.

It has taken some time to find the right place and get all the necessary permissions, as well as making sure the Health Centre would serve as many needy people as possible. GMIN is now nearing completion of the building and we are delighted to share GMIN’s post with our supporters.

Once opened CHANCE will fund the running costs, with two nurses. There is no electricity, so we have funded solar panels for the lighting and to run a small fridge for the medicines.

GMIN is a trusted and fantastic organisation which we are proud to have supported for several years now. We have also funded two schools built by GMIN who have built over 40 schools to date.Progress of our Healthcare Center in Purandhara, Dang which is being funded by Chance for Nepal [UK] and they are also funding the operating cost for three years for this Healthcare Center. This Healthcare Center will be in memory of Martin Lawson who loved Nepal. ... See MoreSee Less

NATIONAL PUB QUIZ – A GREAT RESULT!
Thank you to everyone who came to support CHANCE for NEPAL who took part in the National Pub Quiz. We had 34 players with 5 teams of six and one team of four. Great to welcome two new teams.

Huge thanks to Jane and Brian, the landlords of The Keep in Guildford who regularly host quiz nights for CHANCE throughout the year and entered us into the Annual National Pub Quiz for the third year running. Jane cooked a great curry, which we all enjoyed and my thanks go to Sara who busied herself behind the bar. We raised a very handsome £350 for our projects in Nepal.

Thanks go to Lee Walker, Landlord of The Britannia in Guildford who donated ‘Dinner for Two’ with a bottle of wine, being our first prize in the raffle. We also had bottles of bubbly, and red and white wine which many players brought along for the raffle. I am always amazed at peoples generosity, not only turning out on a wet Sunday evening, paying to play, buying raffle tickets, and bringing raffle prizes. I thank you all.

Our next quiz will be towards the end of May. I will be posting the date, nearer the time. Please note we will be changing our regular Thursday night to a Wednesday night quiz for the rest of the year. ... See MoreSee Less

During February, BVS (Burns Violence Survivors) gave out 69 food hampers to the children on the burns unit at the Kanti Children’s Hospital, 9 of these were to the Trauma Hospital and 6 at the Teaching Hospital; these food baskets are given weekly to every child to aid a speedier recovery. As well as funding the food baskets, CHANCE funds physiotherapy, counselling, emergency cover, skin grafts, medications.To try to cut down on such cases as shared below, which are all harrowing and many occur through carelessness, we are trying with BVS to spread the word by funding monthly half hour radio broadcasts, going out to 73 of 75 districts in Nepal, giving information on what to do if you get burned, how to treat in the immediate moments after being burnt. We also fund presentations in schools, given by BVS staff who speak about the dangers of open fires, hot liquids left unattended – different types of burns – acid attacks etc. By educating the children they can in turn educate the parents! The fourth school presentation carried out last week was at the Sewasadan School, Baneshowar in Kathmandu.Names of the children changed for protection:Sonam is 5 months old. The family live in Dhading around 50kms outside Kathmandu.
His father works as a labourer and his mother a full time mum looking after Sunny, and his two sisters, 7 and 6 years and brother aged 3.The family lost everything in the 2015 earthquake and are still living in temporary accommodation… The family’s economic background is extremely poor. Sonam was left with his elder sister, aged 7 looking after him, whilst the parents were both working on the land. His sister was sitting by an open fire for cooking and warmth. She had Sunny on her knee and tried to stand up with him. He slipped from her hands and fell into the fire where he severely burnt his left hand and leg and bottom. His sister ran out and called her parents who rushed back. At first Sonam was taken to a local clinic, but because the wounds were deep, he was transferred to the specialist burns unit at the Kanti Children’s Hospital. He has had three toes amputated, 2 debridements and 1 skin graft to date. His skin grafts and surgeries have been supported through the Herrod Foundation through CHANCE. He will be on the unit for some time.Bijetta is aged 4 and also comes from Dharding,
Her father keeps chickens and her mother is a housewife. She has four sisters aged 13, 11, 8, and Bijetta who go to school and a baby sister aged 12 months.
On the 14th February, her father had gone off to manage his chickens and her mother had put a large pot of hot water on the floor to cool and Bijetta slipped and put out her hand, into the water, to stop her fall.Ritesh is 12 months old and his family live in Nuwakot, 75kms from Kathamndu. Her father works as a driver and mother a housewife looking after Ritesh who suffered 2nd degree burns to 15% of his left leg.
It was 8.00pm and his mother was cooking the dinner. His grandmother was keeping Ritesh warm by wrapping his clothes in a hot brick! This is an old practice of warming oneself during the winter months when it is so cold in the remote villages. The brick was too hot and burnt his leg. His treatment is still ongoing in the burns unit at The Kanti.Padham is aged 3 and his family are from Dhading, 50 kms from Kathmandu.
He is an only child and his father works as a labourer and his mother a housewife. He suffered 12%, 1 first degree burns to his legs, bottom and thighs.
His mother had left hot buffalo food on the floor to cool down whilst she busied herself with household chores. Padham was running around and fell into the hot buffalo food. His mother rushed to pour cold water on him. He went to a local clinic but his wounds were too severe and deep so he was rushed to the Kanti burns unit. He has now completed his treatment and is back home. He will be back on the ward for a check up in one month’s time.

THANK YOU to CHAMBERLAIN MUSIC, HASLEMERE who today donated 50 school recorders for schools in Nepal!
I mentioned CHANCE for NEPAL when I went to hire my Cello from them, and they were delighted to be involved and donate 50 recorders. Super generous.

Sadly, music in schools does not feature high on the list, good teachers of general subjects, a 'Tiffin' programme, (lunch), science apparatus and materials, computers etc. come first. So I am most excited to be taking these recorders out with me in October. I plan to donate 17 to three of the schools I support.

Yesterday I had my first ever cello lesson with the brilliant Jenny Janse. It was hard, so much to remember! Elgar's Cello Concerto in E minor is a way off I think! ... See MoreSee Less

CHANCE for NEPAL is delighted to fund our second 'Tiffin Programme' through Shenpen, our partner on the ground in Nepal at the Shree Sharadha Madhiyamik Vidhalaya School in Kathamndu. Today, when Anamika (Shenpen's coordinator) seen here on the left, visited the school it was chow mein, which she said the children enjoyed. The menu changes daily.Shenpen Education is delighted to announce the launch of a 2nd daily meal program in a public school of Kathmandu. For the coming 15 months, 114 students will have access to a hot healthy meal every school day.
With this program, we expect school attendance, as well as the students' concentration to improve significantly.
Thanks again to Chance for Nepal for supporting us in this new initiative! ... See MoreSee Less
