Story

Thank you v much for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page! I will be participating in a Man V. Food-style challenge on Sunday 2nd September in order to raise money for volunteering in the poorest areas of Bolivia (which itself is the poorest country in Latin America) with International Service. I will eat ridiculous amounts of food (i.e. a chocolate tray bake cake that serves 40, weighs 1.8kg/4lbs and contains 7280 calories) just like that man off Man V. Food and I'll video it so you can all witness my battle!

During my volunteering placement in Bolivia, which lasts 3 months and begins at the end of September, myself and other members of the International Service team will be working hard to support young and disabled people from difficult and disadvantaged backgrounds. We will help to protect and promote basic human rights such as the right for food, health, safety and education. 

I must raise at least £800 to be able to take part in the project and help those in desperate need.The money I raise will help enable more young volunteers, like myself, from both the UK and overseas developing countries to work on placements that will make a lasting difference on impoverished communities around the world. Any donations, no matter how small, will be very helpful and much appreciated :). Plus you will probably get to see me eat myself into a coma/vom my brains out!
