Following the major 7.8 RS earthquake on 25th April, there were numerous aftershocks including 7.3 RS earthquake on 12th May. The April earthquake killed more than 8,000 people and left thousands of people homeless and destitute. At least 48 people were also confirmed dead because of earthquake on 12th May which has also triggered landslides.
UK Nepal Friendship society along with BU students organised a fundraising event on 12th May from 4 pm until 7 pm in Bournemouth square, appealing for the earthquake victims of Nepal. There were many generous people who contributed for the earthquake victims and we were successful to raise a total of £102.9 in 3 hours time. The raised money has been deposited into the bank account of UKNFS and will be utilised for the benefit of earthquake affected children in Sindhupalchowk district through Child Nepal, a non governmental organisation working for child protection, 
rights and development in Nepal.
Those who could not make it to the Bournemouth square yesterday can make their donations online through UKNFS website which has an option for making donations.
