Hi! I’m Gianna:) I’ve made one of the craziest and most exciting decisions of my life! Next September, I’ll be taking on the Everest Base Camp Trek Challenge 2026 with Choose a Challenge UK, raising funds for Student Minds UK. It’s going to be a huge physical and mental challenge, but I’m so ready to take it on for a cause that really matters, while making unforgettable memories along the way.

Student Minds is the UK’s student mental health charity, empowering students to look after their own wellbeing, support their friends, and create positive change at university. University can be amazing, but it can also be overwhelming with academic, financial, and social pressures, especially when away from home. Mental health really matters, and no student should have to face these challenges alone.

By supporting my fundraiser, you’ll help Student Minds continue their life-changing work and make sure students get the support they need. Every donation, big or small, or simply helping spread the word, makes a real difference.

I’ll also be hosting fundraising events in the months leading up to the trek, so stay tuned!

Thank you so much for supporting this journey and student mental health 💛

Gianna xx
