My story

I’m taking on 70K in May to help communities fight the climate crisis. This means I’ll be covering 70 kilometres by walking instead of getting a bus, in solidarity with millions of people who have to walk long distances for clean water or to sell their produce. Each bus ride I walk, I will donate £1.75, the cost of the bus ride I would have taken. Please help me get up to £500. Some of the walks will include walking from work to home each day of May, whatever the weather!

In Guatemala, farmers like Aurelia are battling extreme weather, but with Christian Aid’s support, they’re learning skills to protect their farms and provide for their families. 

Your support can help fund this vital training. Just £20 could buy two pounds of climate-resilient seeds, diversifying a family’s crop and increasing their resilience against the effects of the climate crisis.

Already started!

Day 1 was on 1st May. I walked home. Took me 35 minutes and raised £1.75! Day 4 raised significantly more because quite a few people from church have pledged to sponsor me which is very kind of them! It could be you too…

How your money helps

This Christian Aid Week, you can support communities on the frontlines of the climate crisis.

In places like Guatemala, extreme weather is destroying crops, deepening hunger and threatening livelihoods. But with the right tools and training, farmers can build sustainable futures.  

Every pound you raise could help:

  • Provide climate-resilient seeds to help families grow food.
  • Fund water conservation techniques to protect crops.
  • Support vital training so farmers can build a sustainable future.
