World challenge expedition is an charity organisation that allows young people from all over the uk to experience an eye opening cultural exchange to one of the world beautiful countries and a physical challenge. They could apply through their school or as an individual ( but you would need to go through i selection process) They will learn to adapt to the new surroundings, the climate and the food. A 'challenger' could also develop new skills such as fundraising and team work which will be benfital in later life. There are different types of journey's you can take including some within the uk however i will be participating in the long haul Peru 2009 expedition.
This is certainly no holiday, the team is responsible to plan their own trip, this includes the budget, transport, accommedation, food and much more. Although the exact itinery has not been planned yet there will be a 5-6 day trek which will be physically strenuous and we must have a demanding exercise programme to make sure we are fit enough to go through with it. Then there will be about 20 days where we work with the local area such as working in an orphanage, a school and help woth building work to increase their quality of life. Then there will be 2-3 days of rest and relaxation where we can visit local markets, visit wildlife or do to activities such as white water rafting.
Each challenger must raise money themselves ( £3595 for Peru 2009) and this can involve holding events such as autions, fun fairs etc, this can also create awareness for this charity, so if you are considering taking on this challenge then the experience will be well worth the hard work you will put into it!
