A water well built in memory of a late Bradford College student is now providing clean drinking water to a village in one of the world’s poorest nations.
Classmates of Suresh Ram were devastated when he died suddenly of natural causes during the summer break from his university course in summer 2016. He was just 21 at the time and two years into a three-year degree in Ophthalmic Dispensing at the University Centre Bradford College.
Keen to honour their friend’s passing, students from the course raised hundreds of pounds which covered the cost of building a well in Nepal.
Photographs of the well, baring Suresh’s name, have recently been received by the college along with thanks from the villagers benefiting from its construction.
