Speaker: Lochan Manandhar previous     next

8 July 2024

Just back from Napal, Club member Lochan described how life is different for women in Napal, living in a patriarchal society. It is particularly difficult for women who are poor and disabled.


In 1998 the Disabled Women Association was established, and a support Centre was built in Kathmandu by community volunteers. It has supported not just disabled women but also young people from 11 to 22 years old, with a range of disabilities.



The Centre is currently setting up small business projects with a view to becoming self-supportive.The Club is currently considering what it could do to help.

Thank you Lochan for a thought-provoking talk.












The club meets on Mondays at
The Nightingale,
116 Nettleham Rd., Lincoln, LN2 1RR
