<p>A British volunteer died after she plunged four floors from a hotel window in Nepal, the Foreign Office has said.</p>
<p>Jennifer Smith was working on a school building project in the Himalayan country when she plummeted to her death in the city of Kathmandu.</p>
<p>The 22-year-old, from Stretford, Greater Manchester, had been enjoying a weekend off with a group from the volunteer programme Platform2 at the time.</p>
<p>She had been due to return home for Christmas.</p>
<p>A spokesman for Platform2 described her death on Saturday as a &#8220;tragic accident&#8221;.</p>
<p>&#8220;The volunteer fell from a hotel window resulting in fatal injuries,&#8221; the spokesman said. &#8220;The accident occurred while away from the Platform2 project on a weekend off. The next of kin have been informed, and we would like to offer the family our deepest sympathy.&#8221;</p>
<p>Ms Smith had been based in the village of Lamatar, about eight miles from the capital city, for the 10-week programme. She was expected to fly home on December 23.</p>
<p>A Foreign Office spokesman said: &#8220;We can confirm the death of a British national on December 4 in Kathmandu, Nepal. &#8220;Next of kin have been informed and we are providing consular assistance.&#8221;</p>
<p>Ms Smith had been on an evening out before the accident happened at around 11.30pm, sources said.</p>
<p>Local reports suggested she suffered head and spinal injuries in the fall at the Tibet Holiday Hotel, in Thamel, a district popular among low-budget travellers. She was taken to the Norvic Hospital but was pronounced dead.</p>
