Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
In October 2022 myself, my brother and a close friend are starting a journey in the Himalayas in Nepal taking in Everest Base Camp and climbing Island Peak standing at 6160 Meters. We have been planning this trip for over 2 years and hours and hours of planning and fitness have been put in to make this a reality.
The trip will take us 3 and a half weeks to achieve and when we finally reach the summit of Island Peak in the Himalayas we will stand amongst some of the most spectacular mountains anywhere in the world. This trip will be physically and emotionally demanding and is sure to test our resolve, fitness, willpower and determination to succeed however working for the Together Trust I see this shown by our young people on a daily basis.
This is not only a life changing experience for myself but I hope to inspire young people I work with that anything is possible and no matter where you start in life you can work your way to the very top and overcome your own struggles and achieve your own goals and reach and climb your own mountain.
I am hoping to raise money so that young people I work with see myself achieving this and I want them to see that anything is possible in life with the correct mindset and will to achieve. I want to raise money so that we can take them on activities and journeys where they can expand their knowledge, see new things and taken them out of their comfort zone and create memories that will last a lifetime.
I truly believe change can and will happen once people find a passion and create goals and targets to achieve this and by having structure and routine in daily lives we can make positive changes to us and the world we live in.
Yours
