Altevette Project
Jo and Ivor loved to travel, when they visited the remote Mustang highlands of Nepal, they came across a medical school for young people in Lo Montang. Jo was very touched by the work being done there and wanted to help raise funds for education of children in the local area. Funds for the Altevette Project were primarily raised from photographic exhibitions and Pal Ewam Namgon Nunnery School, in Thinggar village opened in 2012, but funding is still needed to expand and improve on the facilities. The school is an hours horse ride from Lo Montang Medical School. We feel that this project is everything that Jo would have believed in.
