Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Having worked in an outdoor retailer for a good few years, I've kitted out many people (including my sister) for their adventures and I made the decision years ago that one day I will take on this challenge and I'm excited to say that I'm finally doing it!

What is even better about this challenge is the cause I've chosen to do it for. Being a trainee primary school teacher, children's education is one of the things that I take very seriously and we can sometimes take for granted the amazing opportunities we are given. Raising Futures Kenya (previously called Vision Africa) makes it their mission that all children are given the opportunity to learn, especially those with Special Educational Needs. Please take a look at the amazing work that they do at https://www.raisingfutureskenya.org.uk/

Making a donation is quick and easy and any donation, small or big, is greatly appreciated!
I'm donating myself to cover all flight and trip costs so any donation that you make will 100% go to this amazing charity and the work that they do!

Thank you again for visiting my page and for any donation made!
