The Gurkha Centre would like to extend its heartfelt gratitude to Mr. Gaurav Kandangwa Limbu, who recently completed a 10K run to raise funds in support of our work with Gurkha veterans, widows, and families.
Gaurav took part in the Regent’s Park 10K Run, dedicating his effort to raise awareness and vital funds for The Gurkha Centre’s mission — providing advice, information, and practical support to Gurkha and Nepalese communities across the UK. Within just a few days, Gaurav successfully raised an incredible £840, thanks to the generosity of family, friends, and well-wishers who rallied behind his campaign.
This remarkable achievement will make a real difference to the work we do — from supporting Gurkha veterans and widows with welfare advice, to delivering health awareness sessions, English language classes, and community wellbeing activities.
We are also delighted to share that, with Gaurav’s initiative and support, The Gurkha Centre has now joined the Run For Charity platform, opening an exciting new chapter for our fundraising journey. This partnership allows runners, supporters, and well-wishers to participate in running and sporting events while helping us raise funds for our cause.
Hari Bhandari, CEO of The Gurkha Centre, said:
“We are truly proud of Gaurav for his commitment and community spirit. His 10K run has inspired many, and his initiative has enabled us to join a great platform where more people can get involved. We are deeply grateful to everyone who supported him — this will make a real difference to the lives of Gurkha veterans and families we serve.”
We warmly invite everyone to explore upcoming events and join us on this exciting journey:

Thank you once again to Gaurav and to all who donated and supported his campaign. Together, we continue to strengthen our community and build a healthier, more connected future.
