Now its often said what a special bunch of people exist on this Forum, so I'd like to set a challenge. Nothing too onerous, just an opportunity to help people in Nepal who desperately need help. The Red Cross is appealing for funds so they can get people and equipment out there and I'd like to think the STW could raise a £1000 between us. I know money is tight but if you contribute either £2.50, £5 or £10 [url= http://www.redcross.org.uk/nepalhero?gclid=CjwKEAjw3_ypBRCwoKqKw5P9wgsSJAAbi2K9z43u4poqKd7PIVrKPU7lWJTeKV8B9DX2J9cONw5TQxoCIHjw_wcB ]HERE[/url]....a little from each of us will hopefully add up to a lot. I'll start by donating a tenner, but anything from anyone will help the cause. (Thank you very much for your donation of £10.00 to the British Red Cross - Nepal Earthquake Appeal Your payment reference is: 47M21664LW718141D)

Put it on the thread so we can add it up.

Don't know really....clearly an awesome donation, but would be good if we can get loads of smaller ones to get a big total. Having said that he's on STW and donated so why not!

Thanks for makng it a sticky mods, it's going great, but it would be even greater if EVERYONE made a contribution, even if it's the price of a coffee! It's definitely not about me, it's all about them.

Some incredible generosity so far too, amazing!

Great idea Rockape63. I had the privilege of serving with the Brigade for 2 years, including doing a long language course in Nepal. I could not have wished for more loyal and friendly soldiers and a number of my friends owe their lives to their actions whilst on tour. They, their families and communities are in dire need of help so any encouragement to people to donate is amazing.

You can stick another £100 onto your total (£250 if you include donations to the Gurkha Welfare Trust).

Please, please, please keep donating what you can everyone...

this from a friend on facebook

HELLO LOVELY PEOPLE OF INTERNET LAND...
I spent 2 months in Nepal last year. It's impossible to put into words how amazing and inspiring the people there really are. The recent events are tragic to say the least.
In an effort to raise even a little bit of money to help, I'm auctioning a painting on eBay.
100% of the proceeds will go to the DEC Nepal Earthquake Relief.
Bidding starts at £30.
Please share this with any of your art-loving rich friends, or pimped out parents, or anyone who has fat pockets and a big heart. I will pay for shipping! This is open to international heads also.
Big love and thanks!
