My story

I’m taking on 70K in May to help communities fight the climate crisis.  I’ll be walking 70 kilometres, in solidarity with millions of people who have to walk long distances every day for clean water, like Martha and Tsuheni, two of the inspiring women I met on a Christian Aid trip to Kenya earlier this century. It will be  particularly challenging for me because I  have recently been diagnosed with an autoimmune condition. 

In many countries farmers are battling far greater challenges than mine, like extreme weather conditions, 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, so please help me reach (or exceed) my target.

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.
