Corporal Gokul Chhetri is organising and leading a 69km run to mark the 69th Gurkha Company Birthday. Corporal Gokul and his team from Gurkha Company, ITC Catterick will start the 69km run on 8th August 2020 and it is intended to complete before the birthday celebration whilst raising money for Gurkha Welfare Trust (GWT).
They have chosen to raise money for the GWT because it ensures that Gurkha veterans, their widows, and their wider communities are able to live with dignity in Nepal, through the provision of financial, medical and community aid.
