Our Story

This summer, we feel incredibly lucky to be spending two weeks in Ghana, where we’ll be staying in Awutu Winton School, near Accra, and seeing first-hand what education and lifestyles look like in a very different environment.

Education is something many of us take for granted, but it isn’t as easily accessible for others. As we’ve learned more about the challenges students face, we’ve felt motivated to help. We also recognise that education and community go hand in hand — by supporting both, we can make a more lasting difference.

That’s why we’ve set ourselves a challenge: to raise £1,000 to support the school, the students at Awutu Winton, and the local community. We want to help more young people access the education they deserve, while also contributing to improvements that can benefit families and everyday life in the area.

Our Challenge

On the 8th of April we’ll be taking on a coastal walking challenge, covering over 26 miles in under 12 hours.

Our route will take us:

From Canford School to Studland

From Studland to Hengistbury Head

Finishing with a final steep incline to the end.

It will be a demanding day, but nothing compared to the daily challenges many people face just to access education and essential resources like clean water and electricity.

Where Your Donations Go

All money raised will go directly towards supporting the school in Ghana. Your donations will help provide:

School fees for students who might otherwise miss out.

Essential items like books, uniforms, and learning materials.

Meals, so students can focus on thriving at school rather than worrying about when their next meal will be.

Support for the local community.

Thank You

Thank you for taking the time to read our story and support us.

We feel incredibly grateful for every contribution. By supporting us, you’re not just helping us complete a challenge, you’re helping to give students opportunities that many of us are lucky enough to have every day.

Every donation, no matter the size, will have a direct and lasting impact on the lives of the people we meet this summer.

Every step we take will be for them, and made possible by you.

Thank you for being part of our journey!

Love from Julide and Elsa xxx
