A lovely obituary for Trisha Silvester MBE, co-founder of Sreepur Village, has been published in the Guardian, written by her son Mat Silvester, a trustee of Sreepur Village.

It gives a fuller picture of her life beyond Sreepur Village and is well worth a read.

For sixteen years, our manager, Salma, has been part of the Sreepur Village family. This year, she has watched something special unfold as Hold Everything bags (Sreepur's social enterprise), made by the mothers she works with every day, reach people all over the world.

In her own words, these bags are not just products. They carry the dreams, the hard work and the hope of every woman who makes them.

This video shows exactly what that looks like, mothers building skills, building income, and building a future for their children, one bag at a time.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of this journey with us.

SwimSafe is off for 2026! Our children at Sreepur Village are back in the water learning essential swimming, rescue and water safety skills.

Did you know around 9,600 people die from drowning in Bangladesh every year, and it is the leading cause of death for children aged 1 to 4? Most of these deaths happen close to home, in ponds and ditches, often within 20 metres of the front door.

That is why SwimSafe matters so much. Every child who learns to swim and stay safe in water is a child better protected for life.

Please donate today to help us give more children these life saving skills.

Thank you for helping make programmes like this possible.

Sreepur Village is delighted to announce that SwimSafe is off and running for 2026. The programme is teaching our children essential swimming, rescue and water safety skills, giving them tools that could one day save their own life or the life of a friend.

While much of Kurigram floods every monsoon, with roads and homes disappearing underwater, our mothers and children are safe and dry, and the children can even enjoy playing in the rain.

"During the rainy season, my village is often flooded, and our roads and homes go underwater, making life very difficult.”

Since coming to Sreepur Village, that fear is gone. "I am safe here and no longer have to suffer because of the floods and rains."
When everything else is underwater, hope still has a home.
