<p>The UK has played a leading role in the Nepal earthquake response. Immediately
after the 2015 earthquake, the Department for International Development (DFID) provided
humanitarian relief for thousands of displaced people. This included reaching over
250,000 people with shelter support and providing over 200,000 people with clothes,
blankets and mattresses.</p><p>We are now supporting reconstruction. We have already
repaired water supplies for over 33,000 people, and rehabilitated 114km of remote
trails. We are working with the Nepali Government to find solutions for all households
who remain displaced by the earthquake. Over the next 5 years we will reach over 250,000
with improved water and sanitation and invest in housing reconstruction, supporting
poorer households to rebuild safe homes.</p>
