In the month of March, I am running 25 miles/40km (the length of the Inca Trail) to raise money for Inca Trail Porters, who, due to Covid 19 have had no income and no government support since March 2020. The suggested sponsorship is £25, which would buy an essential food parcel for a porter and their family, but any amount large or small will make a huge difference.

For those of you who don't know the Inca Trail, it is a 3 or 4 day trek up and down mountains to reach Machu Picchu. The porters help by carrying equipment, guiding people along the Trail, setting up camp every night and preparing cooked meals. With the travel ban and Peru heading into a second lockdown, Inca porters are heading into a second season with no income.

The LATA Foundation has teamed up with Amazonas Explorer to support these workers with essential monthly food parcels. 

If you have trekked the Inca Trail, if this is on your bucket list or you just want to help, please consider sponsoring my fundraiser
