WaterAid is an international non-profit with one goal: to change the world through water. Along with decent toilets and good hygiene, a reliable supply of clean water is essential for health, dignity and a life full of opportunity.

Story

WaterAid help the world’s poorest communities to transform their lives with clean water.1 in 10 people don’t have access to safe water and 1 in 3 don’t have access to a decent toilet. We want a world where everyone everywhere has these basic human rights by 2030. Together we can make that happen.

I am part of 100 HSBC Colleagues trekking 100 KM over 5 days deep in the Arctic Circle across Greenland, the world's largest island. As the least densely populated territory in the world with a population of less than 60,000, the trek will take the participants through the untamed land, some of which is untouched by human civilization.

A country that has 80% of its land mass covered in ice, we will be trekking across multiple terrains such as tundra and glaciers. No group of this size has ever scaled this area. Surviving on basic meals, camping in tents in cold conditions, and cut off from all things we take for granted such as a toilet or hot shower, this extremely remote expedition is not for the faint hearted.
