Support Freya with a once in a lifetime trip to Peru (2026)

Donation protected
My name is Freya Temple and I am currently a Year 9 student at Hessle High school in Hessle. I am participating in an expedition to Peru in the summer of 2026. This will be a 4-week expedition and will include community development work, environmental projects and wildlife conservation. It will also include a 4-day trek to the ancient Incan ruins of Machu Picchu which sits in the Andes, in the middle of a tropical rainforest.

I am really looking forward to this once in a life-time opportunity. It will be incredibly rewarding to actively help and support with community, conservation projects and make a meaningful difference to the Peruvian people in whatever way I can. It will also be incredibly educational to learn about the cultures and customs of the people in Peru. I have recently found out that one of the local delicacies in Peru is fried or roasted guinea pig! I’m not sure that this is something I fancy trying out but time will tell. Climbing Machu Picchu is something that I’m extremely excited to experience. Even though I’m prepared for the challenging trek, from the videos I have seen, the dramatic scenery will be worth every bit of discomfort. I am hoping that I may get to see Paddington and Aunt Lucy too!

There is obviously a huge cost to this so to show my commitment and build up my endurance and stamina, I am running a 5K once a month for 12 months starting in October 2024. I would be extremely grateful for any contributions which you could make towards my fundraising.
