I'm trekking for 6 days along the Salkantay trail to reach the ancient city of Machu Picchu. I will be climbing to an altitude of 15,000 feet, going to great lengths to support the most vulnerable children in our country.

Children like Huda, who was sexually assaulted when she was 15 years old, facing honour-based abuse at home afterwards, which led to her frequently going missing and subsequently falling victim to child criminal exploitation, when she became involved in county lines activity, after being made to pack and carry drugs to trap houses by her abusers in return for places to sleep, food and water.

Huda was unaware that she was being exploited when she was referred to a worker from The Childrens Society, who supported her to break free from the cycle of exploitation. Huda is now living back at home and hopes to use her experiences to raise awareness of the reality of county

Please support my challenge, to create a country where children are free from disadvantage, where we fight for change, supporting disadvantaged children to have better lives.
