<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"> </span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Braving blisters, sunburn and altitude sickness, the team will be dusting off their hiking boots for a mammoth trek through Peru to witness the majestic site of Machu Picchu. </span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"> </span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">All five have ensured the full costs of participating are already covered and so proceeds from this site all go to helping UK children with disabilities via the Children Today Charitable Trust.
