Imperial students are supporting Teenage Cancer Trust by sending a team of students to take on the Kilimanjaro Trek in 2025. Their fundraising efforts will help make sure no young person faces cancer alone.

Story

In September 2025, my team and I will be trekking up Africa's highest peak in order to raise money and awareness for Teenage Cancer Trust.

Such a hike requires determination, motivation, resilience and both physical and mental strength.

Our team will be ascending through diverse climate zones ranging from tropical at low altitudes to sub zero temperatures at the summit! We will be faced with long and tough days, low oxygen levels (50% less) and severe weather conditions.

You can also make a difference and change lives! By supporting my team on our endeavour, you offer young adults my age, the care and support they deserve when undergoing cancer treatment. Your donations matter.

I am beyond grateful to be given this opportunity in supporting TCT.

We are prepared to face whatever comes our way and are excited for the journey ahead of us.
