About INF: The International Nepal Fellowship (INF) is one of Nepal’s longest serving international NGOs with decades of experience working with poor and disadvantaged people and communities. Formed on missionary principles in 1952, we have developed into a forward-thinking and impactful organisation, supporting healthcare services (including a cutting-edge hospital focusing on the treatment and rehabilitation of disabled people), plus a wide range of community health and development programmes that reach diverse and hard-to-reach groups in some of the poorest and most remote parts of Nepal.

INF/UK is a key part of the international INF family, raising funds and generating support from the UK to support projects in Nepal, most of which are delivered by INF/Nepal.
