My name is Shweta Pawar and I am a part of the crew for the Great Himalayan Ultra Race. I am a sports enthusiast. I have played Netball at University level and also attended two national camps while in NCC. Being brought up in a Defence background, I had to move locations every 3 years and this has taught me to adapt to new terrains, people and everything that has come in the way in an easy manner. I have recently started exploring cycling and as part of this Himlayan Ultra team, I share the same zeal and zest to conquer the impossible.

I am running this campaign to help spread awareness about the inclusion of persons with disabilities in the outdoors. Arham Shaikh and Sanket Bhirud are the first-ever Tandem pair to participate in the Himalayan Ultra Race at this altitude and I intend to support them and participate in this noble cause for enabling persons with disabilities to achieve what they have dreamt of and to unfold the myriad of possibilities for them. I am working towards building more awareness about this initiative. I believe, Mountains and the outdoors do not differentiate between anyone, so why is it that we differentiate among people? I have always believed that to change something, you have to be the change yourself.

Please support this campaign and together let us spread awareness about the inclusion of persons with disabilities.
