...A family adventure holiday in 2014!
How much do you spend on gifts for your loved ones only to find that special toy cast aside by the New Year or that Christmas jumper stuffed in the back of the wardrobe! Why not put your hard earned pennies towards a family gift that will last a lifetime instead and book an adventure holiday they will never forget. We've added some exciting new family holidays to our collection from Volcanoes, Gelato and Pizza on the Almafi Coast of Italy to a Bollywood and Beaches extravaganza in India. So whether you are looking for a last minute Winter Wonderland adventure to Sweden for February half term, or getting some sun on a spectacular wildlife and activity holiday in Costa Rica during the Easter break we have made it easier for you with our Family holiday planner. >> View all Family holidays

Complete Corsica
|
Walk the entire GR20
Unlike our competitors, we don't deviate from this classic coast to coast walking route, which has been defined as one of the finest and hardest mountain walking routes in the whole of Europe. We're taking a new angle for 2014 and walking the complete GR20 from North to South, which will mean more access to bags and no increase to price.
Also new for 2014 is our Tour of Corsica Road Cycling holiday. Join KE Director, Glenn Rowley, as he leads the first of our new departures in May... and make the most of flights being under £100 from the UK! With spectacular coastlines, stunning mountains, beautiful forests and sleepy villages this new KE biking trip has it all. We've even thrown in a few 2013 Tour de France Cols and some cheese and wine too!

Juniper Trust Update
|
School Teacher Funding
Khane Primary School is based in the Hushe Valley region of Baltistan in Northern Pakistan. Located in the remote village of Khane, the school was built to offer an education to the children of this isolated mountain region. At the start of 2013, The Juniper Trust provided £2000 to cover two teacher salaries for the first year. In 2014, the teacher's salaries will be jointly funded by the Juniper Trust and two long standing supporters, Andy and Clare, who originally brought the project to the Juniper Trust's attention. Further funds are needed as so far £1000 has been raised to cover the salaries of both teachers for the first 6 months but an additional £1000 is needed to cover the salaries for the second half of the year. >> Learn more about this project
