The expedition they are embarking on will follow the appeal members as they look to expand on the charity’s mission by visiting local schools and sanctuaries across Nepal, providing the local community with equipment and football kits donated by local UK football clubs. The IT company were the only industry based organisation offered a spot on the expedition to carry out the appeal’s charitable efforts. ‘We support many outreach programmes as we feel it’s the right thing to do for an organisation of our stature. We are delighted to be offering football kits to the Gurkha community and look forward to assisting the appeal in every way we can in the future.’’ Says Peter Williamson – CEO of SecureCloud+.
