Story

Hi everyone, on behalf of my team I’m doing a trek across the Alps and I can’t even tell you how excited I am. I’ve never done anything like this before so I’m looking forward to the challenge. I will train over the next 12 months in preparation to walk across 3 countries in 3 days. Please can I have your support in helping me do so. All monies raised will be going to an amazing cause and I’m unbelievably proud and greatful to have been given this opportunity to do so. I’m looking forward too sharing my journey with you all. Thank you 🩷

In partnership with Barnardo's, we are embarking on the Barnardo's + Coop - Alps Trek, a challenging yet inspiring journey that symbolizes our commitment to creating a better future for young people. The events of recent years have left over a third of young people feeling that the odds are stacked against them. We believe in the potential of every young person and are dedicated to providing them with the support they need to thrive. Our goal is to raise £3,000 to support 750,000 young people in accessing basic needs like food, managing their mental wellbeing, and creating opportunities for their future. By participating in this trek, we aim to transform the lives of the UK's most vulnerable young people and help thousands of families build a better future. Your donation will make a real difference in the lives of these young individuals. Together, we can inspire hope and create lasting change.
