WEL-COME TO: BASINGSTOKE NEPALESE COMMUNITY
Basingstoke Nepalese Community (BNC)
Is a fairly young community which was established in the early part of 2006. Since its inception, the numbers of settlers have grown rapidly and we have more than two hundred Nepalese families currently living together in the community. BNC is proud to state that it is indeed a community for all Nepalese regardless of their ethnicity and tribal and social background.
Basingstoke
is a very nice place to live in and is proud to state that it has good schools,
excellent NHS and surgeries as well as huge shopping centres and beautiful
leisure parks.
However, BNC also acknowledges the fact that there is a need for certain things in the community that helps us to bind together as a close and healthy community so that we can look after ourselves through good and bad times.
