Toby
Toby is 15 and goes to Eastbury Community School in Barking and Dagenham, a Borough that has the highest unemployment rate and lowest income per household in London, yet like any young individual deserves the opportunity to travel, explore and learn outside the classroom. Toby loves sports and although quite shy comes out of his shell when surrounded by his close friends. He has a passion for the outdoors and ecology and this experience certainly helped him to build his confidence and connect with the natural world...

Bethany
Bethany is a bright and bubbly bundle of joy, she's 14 and goes to Eastbury Community School in Barking and Dagenham, a Borough that has the highest unemployment rate and lowest income per household in London, yet like any young individual deserves the opportunity to travel, explore and learn outside the classroom. Whilst Bethany is a confident character this experience opened her eyes to both local and global issues and made her realise the impact that she can have on the world. Did this trip create a career path or lifestyle that she didn't know existed?

Kian
Kian is a very quiet individual, it's often quite hard to even hear him speak but at 15 he already has a huge passion for Marine Biology. He goes to Eastbury Community School in Barking and Dagenham, a Borough that has the highest unemployment rate and lowest income per household in London, yet like any young individual, deserves the opportunity to travel, explore and learn outside the classroom. During the pre-departure lectures, his knowledge and eagerness to learn were a testament to this personal and professional pathway. Watch how he combats his personal fears and deepens his interest to the natural world...
