It was a great evening raising £700, thank you so much to Fred Kerley and Potterne Cricket Club for generously supporting the Nestling Trust's work in Nepal. Many thanks also to Kevin Gover for producing a quiz that gave a buzz to the whole evening. Swindon Male Voice Choir were superb, delighting an enthusiastic audience at Market Lavington Community Hall on Saturday evening. A feast of music raising over £1000 to help further the work of the Nestling Trust in Nepal. Thank you so much to the choir and also to our fantastic supporters.  Thank you Tracy - it was a great evening! Supporters packed the New Oriel Hall in Bath for a Quiz Night organised by Tracy Creed. The evening was a huge success! Proceeds are to help the Nestling Trust construct a home for destitute and trafficked children in Nepal. We are immensely grateful to you and everyone who is supporting this project. This is Sarangkot where the home is to be built.   Amazing achievement - thank you so much to children of Stonar Prep School who have raised nearly £3k over the last 12 months to help further the Nestling Trust's work in Nepal. Thank you also to all those who have supported the events which have been run throughout the year, we are most grateful. Every penny donated will be spent directly on our projects, building a home for destitute and trafficked children and providing medical care and health education in remote areas of Nepal who are without.
 A sensational evening, over a hundred people watched TV Chef, Peter Vaughan give a demonstration of Nepalese cuisine and were served a fabulous three course Nepalese feast. Devizes Sports Club was transformed into a typical Himalayan Lodge restaurant bedecked with hundreds of prayer flags. Fiddington Hill Nurseries again supplied small trees and ferns giving a sense of the outdoors.
As guests arrived a silk skarf was placed around their neck - a traditional Nepalese gesture of welcome, they were able to enjoy cultural music and were later entertained by a Gurkhar Piper who played Nepalese bagpipes to herald the start of the first and main courses. The food was authentic and delicious - the evening was a huge success. Over £2500 was raised to help further the work of the Nestling Trust in Nepal.
Why the Nestling trust? Here is the reason! In 2011 these children were living in squalor - their home the makeshift tent in which their father had just died. The hugely overstretched child welfare board and various NGO's trying to cope with thousands of destitute children were unable to assist. Sadly within three months the mother also died. ... Thanks to support from friends in Wiltshire this little family were supported and cared for through the WeWomen's Clinic, Banepa. Nearly a year later after much searching, places were found in a children's home run by an organisation from Belgium. Yesterday the amazing photo on the left popped into my inbox - the child on the left is the little girl I first saw in her mothers arms on the right. Twice she nearly died but was nursed back to health, now she and her brother's and sister's are healthy and happy to be growing up together in a caring home. Now they go to school and have hope for the future. Through the Nestling Trust we can continue to create happy outcomes for other children living in despair and sadness. Please visit our website www.nestlingtrust.co.uk Huge 'thank you's' to residents of Devizes Almshouses and Henman Close of Devizes who are helping the work of the Nestling Trust in Nepal.. Sue Hamblin was kindly invited to give a talk on the work of the Charity at a coffee morning in Slade House, Devizes, on Monday 27th October '14. She was presented with a cheque by Titch Fowler, for an amazing £250 to help build a home for destitute children in Nepal and to provide basic healthcare and health education in the remote areas.
