Dear Friends,
As many of you may already be aware Nepal was struck by a terrific and devastating earthquake (7.9 Richter scale – classification: major, i.e. 2nd most dangerous category) on Saturday 25 April 2015 at approximately 12:00pm local time. So far there have been over 75 aftershocks, some of which are stronger than “Moderate” earthquakes, between 5 – 5.9 Richter scale. These are expected to continue over the next 24-48 hours leaving the Nepalese people to fear for their life amongst other things.
My family and friends were lucky enough to survive the earthquake, though they have been traumatised by these events and are leaving in fear of the next aftershock. However, very unfortunately thousands of others weren’t lucky. So far more than 3,800+ people have been confirmed dead and at least 7,000+ people have suffered minor as well as life threatening injuries. Currently there is a state of emergency in Nepal and a complete chaos has swept the country. People in Nepal are in dire need to basic medical supplies, shelter, water, food.
I cannot put into words the damage caused by the earthquake and the scale of work required to build back Nepal however in the short term there is a real and urgent need to help thousands of people with medical and with basic humanitarian needs. I am hereby appealing to all my friends here in the UK and across the globe, who are in a much privileged positions to help support the Nepalese people in this hour of extreme tragedy and need. Please donate generously – every little will make a difference in the ground in Nepal. Please share the message with your family, friends and colleagues.
