We’re a group of young people from across the UK taking on a pretty big challenge with the WeTwo Foundation.
Our journey is taking us from the UK, through Europe and eventually to Morocco, where we’ll be getting involved in community projects, exploring the country, climbing Mount Toubkal and experiencing the landscape and culture along the way. But this trip isn’t just about travelling.
Each of us has also taken on a ‘Pay It Forward Project’, giving something back to our own communities before or during the expedition. So, before we get too far into the journey, here’s a chance to meet the people actually doing it…
