A very special friendship


THE BISHOPSTON KUPPAM FRIENDSHIP LINK

In 1978 the Bishopston Kuppam Link was set up to form a link between Bishopston in Bristol and K.V.Kuppam in south India.
Through direct contact it was hoped to promote a wider understanding between the two communities, create opportunities for friendship and mutual respect and a chance to question old prejudices and misconceptions.

The Rural Unit for Health and Social Affairs has been a vital support in the growth and development of this friendship link and The Bishopston Trading Company, which grew from ‘The Link’, continues to support both The Link projects and The One Candle Project.
