I am delighted to announce that, thanks to all our supporters, we have beaten our Coronavirus Crisis Appeal target of £500,000!

Thank you to everyone who got involved. To see the very real impact donations have already had, please watch the short video.

These are just a few of the thousands of people we’ve already reached with emergency supplies and will continue to support. 

Still more have received educational support while schools are shut, livelihood training while jobs are sparse, and health supplies to keep their families safe during this crisis. Thanks again to all those who supported this appeal, meeting this ongoing need in these challenging times. 

What’s Next?

There are still many people in India and Nepal who, already living on the edge of uncertainty and survival, have had their lives decimated by the fallout from the virus.

The outpouring of generosity that I have seen over this last year shows me that you know just how vital this work is - and that we must keep going.

In the coming weeks, there will be an exciting opportunity to double anything you give, thanks to a group of generous philanthropists who have already pledged to match your donations.

We will be launching this Christmas Appeal just in time for Giving Tuesday on December 1st and we will let you know more soon.

Thank you again to everyone for continuing to support the most vulnerable communities to get through this crisis.
