We set this fund up in response to requests and offers to help we've had from friends and customers, in our restaurant in Bath.
The devastation in Nepal is mind blowing and much of the help getting through to rural villages is by individuals who are working alone, these people are incredibly brave, they have left their own families to reach those in greater need. As hard as they try the work they can do is limited without recourses. Our focus at the moment is on getting funds and recourses to these people by whatever means, until big agencies are able to deliver. The larger agencies will setup aid distribution centres and ultimately deal with the greater numbers but it will take time.
Once there is effective aid distribution on the ground we will be turning our attention to longer-term help, with Monsoon approaching shelter is a major concern. Corn planting time and rice planting is due to start now, along with their houses villagers will have lost their seed stock, without a harvest this year it will be October 2016 before they can feed themselves. We will be looking at how best we can best help and it is our intention to work in harmony with agencies to get aid out to villagers.
We should make it clear that we fully support the large international donors and urge you to do so as well, we need help on every level. Our role is to support the small projects and individuals who are making a big difference but who would inevitably be overlooked in the shear magnitude of what has happened.
We directing our help to villages, as they have always been the strength of our country and through our villages we will recover. We need to keep them together and not in refugee camps.
With thanks to Tamu Dhee UK for their help and guidance.
