The Trek...
On March 1st 2020 myself and 99 HSBC colleagues from around the world will be tackling a 100km high-altitude trek through the Andean Volcanoes in Ecuador. During the trip we will:
- Trek between 6-8 hours for 5 days
- Trek at altitudes over 3,500 metres; our maximum altitude will be 4,300 metres
- Carry all our equipment
- Camp, with no beds or hot showers in sight
- Live on basic meals
Why?
I feel so lucky and excited to have been given the opportunity to complete this challenge, to raise awareness and money for a cause that I think is really important.
Right now there is a movement which has real momentum, it's all about removing the stereotyping, embarrassment and shame that comes with having mental health problems and making sure that everybody has access to the support they need, when they need it.
The work that Mind does provides such a strong support in the drive toward achieving a world where everyone feels safe and supported. Positive mental health is so important, so please donate as much as you can today!
