Story

I’ve been given a fantastic opportunity by the Springboard
charity and through the company I work for, Bunzl, to help a community in need. We’ll be providing a remote location of Peru with some of the things in life we take for granted; we’ll be building shelter, teaching English and installing solar panels to provide renewable energy, among many other tasks.

In total we’ll be in Peru for eleven days; five of which are
spent hiking through, what I hope to be, friendly llama-strewn mountains, and the remainder will be spent working tirelessly with the community.

I would love to be able to go on this trip of a lifetime, but in order to make this dream a reality I need to raise a total of £3,200 through fundraising. The money that is donated will be providing us with the materials needed in which to make this community's life a better one.

Any and all donations are welcome, and are greatly appreciated.
