"I have known Val Burnell (and her climbing husband Terry) and Kelvin Kent, board members of WCFH for over 50 years and am hugely impressed with all that they have done for their local community and particularly of what they and their colleagues, whom I have also met, do to improve the lives of people in Nepal and elsewhere and I know that the difference they make benefits many, many needy people in underserved areas with funds and provision of material items. They have my full and enthusiastic support."
