Vocational School - Dhangadhi

2024 saw the start of our support of a second vocational school, this time in the far west of Nepal in Dhangadhi, on land kindly donated by the Municipality of Dhangadhi.

 

In October 2024 the team worked hard on the new building site and made a significant physical contribution to the build, which totalled some 64-man days of work. This was on top of the monetary contribution being made through their hard work in getting crucial sponsorship. They worked alongside the skilled Nepali team, helping to clear the site, mix cement, sieve sand and shift A LOT of bricks! Also, as a result of their interactions with the local children, the team even managed to complete an extra task not on the original ‘to-do’ list….the levelling of their cricket pitch!

 

It's safe to say that a piece of all of the team’s hearts has been left in Dhangadhi and they can't wait to see the Vocational School open and operational.

 

The Nepal Youth Foundation, whom we are working alongside, have the current plan for the school:
 

  • Initially, once complete, to start providing courses for four trades: electrical (house wiring); plumbing; carpentry and welding.

  • Each course will be circa 390 hours and will provide the young trainees with essential skills to start working alongside experts. After gaining this field-based work experience it will no doubt open further opportunities for them, either to run their own independent business, or, to work for a local company.

  • There is also ample land at this site to consider adding a further agricultural trade to the available courses in the future.
