Hey folks! As some of you already know, me and Sam will be travelling to Nepal in November 2022 with Adventure Aid Nepal to help with several Juniper Trust projects in the remote Kinja Valley below Everest. We will be volunteering at 3 schools, painting classrooms, building play areas, and giving them new uniforms and equipment for their classes. We will also help with planting 3000 fruit trees and renovation work on schools destroyed on the 2015 earthquake.
To RAISE money towards the projects we will be attempting The National 3 Peaks Challenge in July 2022, climbing highest mountains in all three countries within 24 hours.
We will be starting in the Welsh mountain, Snowdon, standing at no less than 1,085 m, 3,560 ft. starts in Scotland at Ben Nevis, which at, 1,344 metres, or 4,409 ft is the tallest of the three. From there we will drive back into the Lake District where we will climb the local Scafell Pike (978 m, 3,209 ft). The final of the three will be in Scotland at Ben Nevis, which at, 1,344 metres, or 4,409 ft is the tallest of the three. The total distance is estimated at 44 km (27 mi), with a total ascent of 9,800 feet (3,000 m) and a total driving time of 16 hours (from and back to Keswick)
We will set off in July 2022, with the aim of raising money for ‘Adventure Aid Nepal’ AAN - https://adventureaidnepal.org/ At Adventure Aid Nepal, they offer sustainable low-impact
volunteering to support the poorest communities, particularly schools and children that have received very little outside help since the earthquake of 2015.
Any donations to AAN will be channelled to the Juniper Trust, a charity which is completely run by volunteers where 100% of donations go towards the projects that we will be supporting on this 2022 trip. We will be helping renovate Maili School, where the 90 students have been using a temporary school for their education since the earthquake in April 2015.
We hope to raise £7,500 to purchase new uniforms and school equipment for 200 children and to plant 3000 fruit trees close to the village. During this project we will be hands on, helping where needed and sharing experiences with the villagers and children
100% of Donations will go to the projects we are helping with
