Contents of a Shelter Box

Disastrous flooding on the Nepal/Tibet border on 26 August swept away homes, roads and bridges. Hundreds of people were killed and thousands more are missing.  It is estimated trhat some 65000 people have been affected.  The cause is believed to be the collapse of a large mass of ice and rock from a glacier high in the Himalayas.  

In response the Club has paid some £600 for a Shelter box which contains essential support for affected families.
