In August 2023 myself and a group of students from the University of Exeter will ascend 4650 m above sea level for a 6-day expedition to Machu Picchu to raise money for Hope for Children (https://www.hope-for-children.org/). To help us reach our fundraising target we will also be undertaking a variety of charitable endeavors from bake sales to bucket collections.

Hope for Children is an incredible charity striving to ensure that marginialised children in extreme rural and urban poverty are set for a fulfilling future. They aim to improve the standard of education that these children receive, boost their physical and mental health and provide aid to low-income families who cannot afford to send their children to school.

Your donations are greatly appreciated!

£6 will provide online tuition for a secondary school student in Uganda for a week

£6.25 pays for food and toiletry essentials for a child-headed family for a week

£20 can provide a set of headphones for a blind student to access recorded material in school in Sri Lanka

£50 can provide English, Maths, and science classes to one child in Sri Lanka for one year

£100 pays for school supplies, a bag, shoes, and uniform for 4 children in Uganda

£600 covers a 6-month supply of sanitary pads and underwear for all girls on Walk 2 School and other projects in Uganda

£650 can pay for a teacher delivering after-school classes 8 hours per week for a year

£1000 provides preschool places for 25 children which enable progression to mainstream school in Sri Lanka

I am incredibly proud to be raising money for such a worthy cause.

Those who know me will know that I am a liability at the best of times - let alone when trekking on the other side of the world. Wish me luck and please donate what you can.

Thank you!! :)
