We provide free safe reconstructive surgery to children born with cleft lips & palates.

Story

We are attempting to trek from Lima (Peru) to the lost city of Paraguay (4,000km) in a vehicle designed to travel distances of less than 30km (a Moto Taxi).

Why are we doing this? To bring a smile to the world. Quite literally we are raising money for the charity Operation Smile that helps children with facial disfigurements in countries where the disfigurements are not resolved by the local healthcare systems.

Please donate to help us on our quest. All money goes directly to the charity and all flights, entrance fees etc are covered by us personally.

About the charity

Operation Smile provides free cleft surgeries for children around the globe. We train local doctors to give them the expertise to carry out these surgeries long after we have gone. In as little as 45 minutes & for just £150 we can provide surgery that will transform a child’s life forever.
