I am going to be part of a 2024 expedition group, taking on an empowering and personally challenging, 28 day trip to Ecuador, South America.

With 2 years of preparation and little more than observation from Expedition Leaders, this is an experience that will test and develop my planning, leadership and teamwork skills and help to define important personal qualities such as respect, commitment and humility.

Equipped with a 'neatly filled' backpack and a good pair of boots, our group will be trekking and undertaking a rural community improvement project - and each person has to raise £5,400 to make it happen.

I aim to achieve my target by using my own savings, various fundraising events and hopefully, with support from family and friends, through this Just Giving page.

I'd be massively grateful for anything you might be willing to contribute.

Thank you so much :)
