Story

Hi everyone!

Next August myself and other students from the University of Exeter will be trekking to Machu Picchu, the ancient city of the Inca in Cusco, Peru. The six day trek will take us over 4,600 metres above sea level so this is going to be extremely challenging!

What makes it all worth while is the money we are going to raise for Worldwide Cancer Research, an amazing charity that funds research institutions around the world in the hope of one day finding a cure for cancer. My target is £2990, of which at least half will go towards the charity. Having lost my nan to cancer in 2013, I hope I can go beyond this.

In the next few months I will be working hard to raise this money, but I would be extremely grateful for any donations, no matter how small.

Thank you! :)
