About the blog

On 22nd June, Aaron and I will be heading over to Solferino in Northern Italy to attend the Red Cross Red Crescent International Youth Conference, Youth on the Move. Following this we will be participating in a commemorative walk, the Journey of an Idea, from Solferino to Geneva, Switzerland. This journey follows in the footsteps of Henry Dunant, the founder of Red Cross, as he returned home to Geneva to share his brilliant idea and ultimately create the Red Cross, more to come on Dunant later though. The journey commemorates 150 years since the founding of the Red Cross movement, and Aaron and I will be posting pictures and messages leading up to and during our trip, so you can all follow along.
