Award winning partner to the organising team for the Rugby World Cup 2015

In November 2018, Sara was one of a team of women who are trekking 100km across the Himalayas of Nepal to raise money for the Tendi Sherpa Foundation.  

Tendi became a Sherpa aged just 13 and the following year bought his first pair of shoes. Now in his early 30s, Tendi has summited Everest 12 times - including two summits in one week!  

The Tendi Sherpa Foundation is his attempt to raise money to build schools and vocational colleges in the villages so the children of Nepal don’t have to make daily arduous journeys simply for an education and ultimately can make different life choices.

Inspired, Sara joined a group of adventurous, driven, like-minded and slightly crazy women on a trek led by Tendi. They aimed to trek to his home in the remote village of Saisima in the Khembalung Valley, an area few Westerners have ever visited.

The trek left Kathmandu on Sunday 4th November and returned to Kathmandu, after trekking for 9 days and camping for 8 nights, on Friday 13th November!

 The Trek hoped to make a big difference to Nepal’s remote Sherpa communities. By creating schools and building bridges to deliver education and safe travel, the goal is to bring much-needed help to communities where financial support is minimal or non-existent. And they can only do this with your help.
