I will be travelling to Nepal this April to take on both a personal and physical challenge, in the form of a trek to the summit of Poon Hill. Along with the tough descents and ascents culminating in a challenging 3,210 metres climb to the Poon Hill summit, I will also travel to rural communities to see first hand how money raised will be used to deliver programmes and meet the people that are benefiting from the work of Plan International.

The trip will last 10 days and in that time the team will journey through remote mountain villages, trek through the village of Ghandruk, home to the Gurung people, and make our way through Rhododendron and Oak Forests and the village of Deurali. During our time we will be visiting the construction sites of school dwellings that have had to be rebuilt  after the devastating earthquakes that struck Nepal in April and May 2015.

I will return home to Ireland on the 7th of May, 2017 with the hope and desire to share our experience and inspire others to support this worthy cause.

Thank you.
