NEW Ecuador Volcanoes June 2015 date

We have added an additional Ecuador Volcanoes departure (26 June - 12 July 2015*). This is a special opportunity to join and help Harefield hospital to raise money in support of transplant medicine. Specifically, they are raising money to buy Organ Care Systems, which allow donor organs to be maintained in a warm, functioning state outside of the body, extending the time frame from 3 hours in "cold ischaemia" (ice preservation) to a maximum of 12 hours. This increases the number of donated hearts and lungs the team at Harefield can accept and retrieve. You can find out more about Harefield hospital's expedition to Ecuador and about their fund-raising on the Climb For My Donor website.

*Please note this trip is 17 days - 1 day longer than our standard Ecuador Volcanoes expeditions.
