Springboard Trek to Nicaragua , 20 January 2023
This twice postponed trek is now on track to head to Nicaragua in January 2023. Whilst there, our trekkers will not only take on the challenge of a 10 day hike over mountains and volcanoes, but support a project to help the community in Nicaragua.

Story

In 2020 I was planning on heading to Nicaragua to do a community project for the village of Rota and a 10 day trek over mountains and volcanoes! 

This trek has been unfortunately postponed TWICE due to covid lockdowns and restrictions, but is now on track to head to Nicaragua in January 2023!

The money raised will fund the project and also support Springboard's mission to futureproof the talent pipeline for hospitality by going towards helping young, unemployed and disadvantaged people to access free employability and skills training, mentoring, advice, careers guidance, clothes for interviews and travel costs in order to help them get into a sustainable job within the hospitality, leisure and tourism sector.

Although a lot of you sponsored me in 2020, that money has all been passed to the charities I was supporting, so I would like to ask you once again if you would please support me in this very worthy cause. 

Thank you, Susan
