Update: I am extremely grateful for all the support and this has permitted me to increase my target. Thank you everybody!

Hi, I'm Jim and in July 2026 I am going to Ecuador for four weeks with Camps International.

On the Trip my schoolmates and I will be contributing to Sustainable Projects that help Support local Communities and Protect the Biodiverse Environment. We will also trek through the Cotopaxi National Park which is above 4000m in The Andes and will camp in the Amazon Rainforest while learning to tackle difficult terrain.

I am going on the trip because I feel it will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and to make a difference to the local communities. I believe I will experience and learn things I cannot here in the UK.

To raise the funds for the trip I will be walking home from my school every day for a week. the journey is 3.9 miles so I will walk 19.5 miles in total during the week. I will do the walk from Monday to Friday on either the week commencing 7th July or the 14th July. I would be extremely grateful for any donations or sponsors that would like to support me in reaching my target.
