End of Expedition




Yesterday was a very sad day for us all here at Fieldbase: we said goodbye to our venturers who are now making their way either back home or onwards to travel further around India and abroad independently.


There were many tears, from venturers and staff alike; it was not easy to say goodbye to such great new friends after spending an amazing ten weeks together. It now seems so long ago when our 39 venturers arrived at Fieldbase on the 11th of February to begin their adventure in India, and yet the time has flown by in a flash of hard work, laughter, fun and changeover parties!


I would just like to say a massive congratulations to each and everyone for all their amazing achievements and a huge thank you to everyone who produced and shared poems, songs, drawings, stories and great photographs from their alpha groups for use in the magazine, blog and to decorate Fieldbase.


And finally, more thanks and a big hug (again) to all the wonderful Project PROs (Alice, Charlie, Christina, Josie, Olivia, Sarah, Thomasin, Tom, Venetia and Will) for all their hard work keeping me up-to-date with the news, gossip and activities from their project sites, including some fantastic reports for the blog and magazine.


Don't forget, it doesn't end here! Raleigh is not just about an expedition, it's about being a part of a community of like-minded people. Stay involved with Raleigh through the alumni section on the website where you can keep in touch with your expedition friends, share memories and photos and learn about Raleigh societies and other volunteering opportunities.
