Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In December 2018 I will be embarking on a trip of a lifetime. I will be taking part in a 17 day trip with 12 of those days trekking to the base camp of the worlds tallest free standing mountain- EVEREST!!!! This for me is on my bucket list of things to do in my lifetime and so as challenging as this will be I am excited to have the opportunity to do so. 




I will be part of a group representing Penny Appeal and will be raising money for their Rohingya Emergency campaign. 




The UN calls the Rohingya community one of the world’s most persecuted minorities. For the past 4 years, hundreds of thousands of Rohingyan people have been internally displaced within Burma. Living in makeshift camps.  They are in desperate need of food, water, shelter and medical care in order to survive. They have had their human rights violated. Destruction is rife with women being raped, children abused and their villages burned to the ground. 




Their are refugees fleeing the violence and crossing the border into neighbouring Bangladesh, they are ill and need medical attention. However the camps in Bangladesh don’t have sufficient resources to treat the injured or feed those who haven’t eaten in days. 




So this is where I need your help - I am hoping to raise £10,000 in order to help these displaced refugees. The cost of the travel is being covered by Penny Appeal so 100% of the money raised will be used to contribute to the cause. Please spare any small change you may have and help me reach my target.
