We are Moving to a Self Sustaining Model...

Feedom to Learn UK is closing… but Freedom to Learn Nepal is thriving!

Dear our Amazing Donors,

After many incredible years, Freedom to Learn UK will close on 31st July 2026. But this isn’t the end of the story folks - don’t worry!

It’s the beginning of an exciting new chapter.

Thanks to years of support from our amazing donors, volunteers and partners, Freedom to Learn Nepal is now self-sustaining. The new Café and Education Hub in Panauti is already welcoming visitors, providing hospitality training, generating income, and funding education projects across the local community. This has always been our dream: a future where the work in Nepal continues independently.

As we close the UK charity, all remaining funds will be transferred to Nepal so the work can continue.

One last chance to help! We’re making a final appeal to raise a further £8,000 for the Café and Education Hub. We’re already over two-thirds of the way there. If you’re able to make one final donation before the end of July, we’d be so grateful.

If you have a standing order or direct debit to Freedom to Learn UK, please cancel it before 31st July, as the UK bank account will be closing.

To everyone who has supported us over the years, whether by donating, volunteering, visiting Nepal or cheering us on

Thank You.

You’ve helped create something that will continue changing lives for years to come. We couldn’t have done it without you.

Our fantastic and committed team in Nepal are working hard and making tangible positive change for children and young people in Panauti.

We made the dream become a reality.
