We had an incredible day out to Sir Harold Hillier

We had an incredible day out to Sir Harold Hillier Arboretum and Gardens on Saturday for the 25th anniversary of their Gurkha Memorial Garden. Hundreds of people started their day with a visit to the Museum before heading on. A procession through the gardens preceded a remembrance service at the Chautara, a stone structure often found in Nepal for weary travelers on their journeys along the main routes in the foothills.

The afternoon was filled with celebrations in the sun featuring Nepali dancing, music and food.

Make sure you head down to the Hillier Gardens and enjoy the tranquility of the Gurkha Memorial Garden yourself!

Five years ago today, three Gurkhas reached the summit of Mt. Everest, the first time this had been done by serving Gurkha soldiers. 🏔

The next day, the remainder of a team of British officers and Gurkha other ranks from Royal Gurkha Rifles and the Brigade, successfully climbed to the summit of Everest to commemorate 200 years of loyal service to the British Crown. The climb had been frustrated in 2015 (the 200th Anniversary of the raising of the first British Gurkha units) by the disastrous earthquake in April and May of that year.
