Summary[edit]

Description

Poor farmers across Nepal are being given help buying seeds, offered advice on growing vegetables and helped to build wells to irrigate their crops - thanks to a UK-supported scheme. These farmers are from isolated communities where 38% of people live below the poverty line and are often forced to walk more than two hours to their nearest paved road.

The UK-supported Community Support Programme is now in its tenth year. It provides a life line for rural people – allowing them to grow and sell crops to feed their families, send their children to school and for those living beyond the reach of the government's free healthcare programme, to pay for healthcare and the cost of transport to reach it.
