Subscribe to / @robloak
For over 200 years, Gurkha soldiers have been an integral part of the British Army. Despite their long-standing service, Gurkha soldiers have faced challenges in gaining equal rights and pensions. Upon retirement, Gurkha soldiers often return to Nepal, living with significantly lower pensions compared to their British counterparts.
Explore the post-service lives of Gurkha soldiers, revealing the support provided by the British Gurkha Welfare Society and the array of challenges they confront, including their battle for residency rights in the UK. Listen to heartfelt personal stories from retired Gurkhas as they share their past.
This episode has been filmed in 2017.

I always love Hugh's ending speeches. 👌 #OnTheRoadTo100K. #Robloak.

I'm a British veteran. I consider the Gurkhas to be superb light infantry. Better than I was or most British soldiers. They deserve respect and equality.

[@melaniabladeofmiquella]

Gurhas are strong, brave, honourable people who deserve absolute recognition for the aid they've provided Britain and I assume other countries! Bless them ❤
