Hello, my name is Kayin Rose-Morrison. I am 17 years old, and I have been given an amazing opportunity to take part in a life-changing expedition to Nepal in 2026. This trip will include trekking through the breathtaking mountains, experiencing Nepal’s rich culture, and connecting with local communities.

For me, this trip is not just about adventure—it’s about growth, challenge, and giving back.

Why Nepal?

Trekking in Nepal will be both physically and mentally demanding. But I feel ready for this challenge thanks to my background in football, athletics, and martial arts. I have trained regularly with a personal coach since 2019, and through sport I’ve developed resilience, discipline, and teamwork. These qualities will help me succeed on the trek and support my group.

I am also excited to learn from and connect with the people of Nepal. In 2020, I co-authored My Roots, a book celebrating the Windrush generation. That experience taught me the importance of listening to others’ stories and respecting different cultures. I hope to bring that same spirit of openness and curiosity to this journey.

About Me

Education: I recently passed all of my GCSEs, which made my parents very proud and showed me the value of hard work and determination.

Music & Arts: I studied drums, piano, and guitar at Temple Springs Music School for over 10 years, performing in shows and achieving the Trinity College London Arts Award.

Sport & Fitness: Experienced footballer with a strong background in training and competition. Also achieved a Brown Belt in karate.

Community & Leadership: I have sold books and bottled water at community events, learning how to communicate confidently and support others.

How the Funds Will Help

The cost of the trip is £3,500, which covers:

Every contribution—no matter how small—will help me reach my goal and make this dream possible.
