The Challenge

2 days, 125 miles, 2,300m of climbing

The Cause

One of the most significant barriers to anyone trying to resettle in the UK is a good understanding of the English language. Displaced young people often arrive as beginners in English speaking and reading, making finding their feet in new environments extremely challenging. Big Leaf Foundation run weekly full day English sessions, bringing young people together with teachers to work on building language skills. Your donation means that Big Leaf can continue offering this vital service.
