Why as a team did you choose to focus on this challenge?

We chose this challenge as the number of refugees in Ireland has increased insignificantly and we wanted to see what it is like in everyday life as nick Henderson .


What do you know now about the challenge that you didn't know before?

We now know that there are so many refugees in Ireland and more coming due to the war that they need basic products and support to help to have a better tomorrow in Ireland now that they live here ,we also now know the jobs nick Henderson does to improve his skills .


What have you learnt about your Hero?

Our hero is nick Henderson, challenges he faces everyday are new refugees coming to Ireland needing homes and shelter basic everyday hygiene products and necessities for their everyday lives they need to send their children to schools ,start working if they wish ,help them understand the rules and regulations of Ireland that might be a lot Different in Different countries around the globe .his everyday day job is quite difficult due to the increase of refugees ,we have learned that is job is very important and tough and not everyone is up for the challenge.he is involved in fundraising


If you could improve one thing for your Hero what would that be?
