Funding
and Donors
BRINOS is a registered charity in the United Kingdom
(no.800453).
The work of BRINOS depends entirely on charitable donations.
Charitable donations fund the vital manpower and equipment needed
to sustain the Primary Ear Care and Hearing Aid Programme. In addition
funding is required in order to purchase and maintain the specialised
equipment needed to undertake middle ear microsurgery.
Recent Funding Assistance
- Harry Townsend ran for BRINOS in the
Hastings Half Marathon and raised over £1,000 to add
to his Sutton Valance School mufti day which raised a further
£1,017. We are very grateful to Harry, to all his
supporters and to his felliow students who helped to raise
this enormous donation to BRINOS. In this way they helped
us to help the children of Nepal.

- Jonathan Veira (see www.jonathanveira.co.uk/)
the international opera singer gave, in July 2010, a wonderfully
amusing musical evening for BRINOS at the Royal Society
of Medicine. The concert was followed by a Nepalese supper.
The event was attended by the Ambassador of Nepal, HE Dr.
Suresh C.Chalise, and the President of the Royal Society
of Medicine, Professor Parvine Kumar.
The evening raised sufficient funds to support the BRINOS
Ear Health Community Service (BEHCS) for another year. BRINOS
is most grateful Jonathan and Sue Veira.

- BRINOS was awarded a further grant from the BMA
Humaritarian Fund (jointly with the BMA and the
Royal College of Nursing) which covered the expenses of
the 42nd Ear Surgery Camp held in November 2010. This was
the second time that BRINOS had been selected for this award.
The first time was in November 2007.

- In 2009, Yvette Youngs completed the
Etape Caledonia cycle race in the Scottish Highlands in
order to raise funds for BRINOS. Yvette managed to complete
the 82 mile course and was able to raise a total of £2000
for BRINOS.
This followed Yvette's participation in the successful 38th
BRINOS Ear Camp in Nepalgunj in March 2009.
