Three years ago Gurkha veterans and their families won the right to settle in the UK.

Aldershot MP Gerald Howarth caused controversy last week, when he said the settled Gurkha community should be more dispersed.

Around 9000 are now living in the Aldershot area, which local people say is putting a strain on services.

British Forces News has been to Folkestone, home of the Royal Gurkha Rifles, to see how the Nepalese community there is settling in.
