Everest Base Camp Expedition

At the end of August, we are trekking to Mount Everest Base Camp in Nepal to raise funds and awareness for the Sydney Children's Hospital Randwick. This feat will involve a 3 week expedition commencing with us flying into what is statistically the world’s deadliest airport on the cliffsides of the Lukla province. The expedition will require us to traverse to almost 6km above sea level at sub-zero temperatures where our oxygen levels will be less than half of that at ground. All this, culminated with the fact that we are trekking in the middle of Nepal’s torrential monsoon season, the expedition will genuinely be one of the hardest physical and mental challenges we ever encounter.

So why are we doing it? We have both been patients at the Sydney Children’s Hospital on multiple occasions and we feel the need to give back to a resource that provides so much to our society. Through fundraising, we hope to assist the hospital in purchasing life-saving medical equipment and advancing their critical infant and child medical research. Alongside our various corporate sponsors who are supporting our fundraising journey, we would really appreciate any donations to further assist the amazing and literally life-changing work the Sydney Children’s Hospital and NETS (Newborn & paediatric Emergency Transport Service) does.

Thank you for your support,

Nick & Joey
