Staff teams for Phase One are announced

Our Management team revealed to us today where each of the Project Managers will be working for the first Phase of our expedition. For the current line-up for each project site in Phase One, see below

In Alpha One on the Community Project in the village of Hosakerasunda are:

Kate Morten – Project Manager
Sally Jupp – Project Manager
Claire Lehman - Medic

Once the participants arrive, the group will be living and working alongside the community to improve facilities in the village with the construction of eco-sanitation units.


In Alpha 2 on the Environmental Project in Nagerhole National Park are:

Hana Manthorpe – Project Manager
Suzanne Leamy – Project Manager
Jenny Newman - Medic

This group will be based in the stunning location of the Nagerhole National Park to repair and maintain elephant trenches which are vital to protect villagers’ crops.


And in Alpha 3 on the Adventure Phase to the backwaters of Kerala on the Arabian coast are:

Dominic Short – Project Manager
Claire Morris – Project Manager
Matthew Mudford - Medic

The trekkers will undertake an arduous and remote 19 day route over physically demanding terrain through some stunning scenery in the state of Kerala. Each night the group will have to set up wilderness campsites, carrying all their equipment between sites.


Now that the groups have been decided, each alpha group will spend four days on their Project Planning visits at the project location. During this time careful consideration will have to be made in order to decide what activities the participants will be involved in during their time on that part of the phase, looking at the facilities are available, all the health and safety measures that will need to be put in place and what equipment may be needed for a successful expedition.

Once all this preparation has been laid out, the groups will be ready to present their findings and ideas back to Fieldbase and start getting ready for when the participants arrive here at Fieldbase on Monday the 11th February.
