World Challenge 'Amazon and Andes' is a once in a lifetime opportunity for young people to travel to Peru. I would very much like to join the trip, which will be in July 2019, and think the experience would be life changing.

We will experience the culture of Peru, explore the country and learn about the people and how they live such different lives to us. Giving something back to the community by contributing to a local cause will also be an amazing experience.

I would like to go because I would enjoy the challenges it would bring and want to try to push myself out of my comfort zone as I am not a naturally confident person. I believe that this trip could help me build my confidence and social skills as well as develop practical life skills. I think that going on this trip would mean I would have to deal with situations I may not feel comfortable with and help me to overcome any worries about them, which will help me in the future.

I would very much like to join the trip and, to do this, I need to raise all the money for the trip myself. I will be doing lots of fundraising events and jobs - including a sponsored Abseil! I would be grateful for your support.

Thank you
