Forces News has been focussing on the welfare of Gurkha veterans scattered across Nepal.

They receive vital support from The Gurkha Welfare Trust and its field arm, the Gurkha Welfare Scheme.

With the backing of actress Joanna Lumley, the trust raises more than 11 million pounds every year to take the help where it is needed.

Our reporter Carla Prater has travelled to Nepal to see some of the ways that money is being put to use.
