The Spiti Valley is a remote area high in the Himalayas situated on the Tibetan plateau with almost no rain and snow-covered for 8 months a year.

Although originally Tibetan, it's been part of India since the mid 19th century and virtually closed off from the World for most of the last 50 years.

For the population of 10,000 people, life is difficult and physically challenging at an altitude of 12,000 feet, yet the people are warm and generous

by nature, with a strong sense of spirituality.


The Spiti Projects Charity
provides support for several important projects:

  1. To build a dormitory for the Mane Village School, completed by Spiti Projects in 2005
  2. To support Mud Brick technology use by local small enterprises set up by Spiti Projects
  3. To construct a clinic in Mane Village for local health care
  4. To continue to support health care programmes in the small hospital in Kaza

While much has been accomplished in the last few years, a lot of important work remains to be done.
