Serving a diverse organisation large members, the club has been a central recreational facility for GSU personnel and their families. However, its facilities have remained largely unchanged for more than 30 years. The redevelopment aims to modernise the club and provide a more comfortable, safe and family-friendly environment, reflecting GSU’s commitment to enhancing the welfare and wellbeing of its personnel.

Funded through the Gurkha Welfare Fund Trust (GWFT), the project is being implemented in three phases under the supervision of Lt Ramkumar Rai (Project Officer).

Once fully completed, the newly named Khukuri Club will provide enhanced recreational facilities and serve as a vibrant social hub, fostering stronger camaraderie, family engagement and unit cohesion across the GSU.
