The construction work continues in Darjeeling apace in order to get as much work done as possible before the cold weather of winter sets in. The photos below show the progress in the boy's accommodation block: wooden ceilings will help provide additional insulation (important in the mountains and during the monsoon), and the bathrooms have been tiled and plumbed in.
Excitingly, a group of trustees and supporters are heading off to Darjeeling at the end of the week to visit the site and see progress for themselves- more photos and updates will be on their way very soon!
There is exciting news in England too with the date for the second Bricks & Mortar Ball fast approaching. This black tie event is a fundraising ball to help raise the money to move forward with phase 2 of construction: it will be a night of great food, great atmosphere and great entertainment and will feature the opportunity to bid on some top quality prizes that you can't get anywhere else, as part of our live auction. It's being held in the V&A Museum of Childhood, a fantastic and appropriate venue for a top night out.
If you'd like to attend- and it will be a really great night!- please email events@darjeelingchildrenstrust.com and reserve your space. Hurry as tickets are selling out fast!
Here are a couple of photos from last year's event to whet the appetite:
