My story

Rydyn ni'n ymgymryd â'r her 70K ym mis Mai i helpu cymunedau i frwydro yn erbyn yr argyfwng hinsawdd. Mae hyn yn golygu y byddwn yn teithio dros 70 cilomedr mewn amrywiol ffyrdd mewn undod â miliynau o bobl sy'n gorfod cerdded pellteroedd hir i gael dŵr glân neu i werthu eu cynnyrch.

Yn Guatemala, mae ffermwyr fel Aurelia yn brwydro yn erbyn tywydd eithafol, ond gyda chefnogaeth Cymorth Cristnogol, maen nhw’n dysgu sgiliau i warchod eu ffermydd a darparu ar gyfer eu teuluoedd.

Gall eich cefnogaeth helpu i ariannu'r hyfforddiant hanfodol hwn. Gallai dim ond £20 brynu dau bwys o hadau sy’n gallu gwrthsefyll yr hinsawdd, gan arallgyfeirio cnwd teulu a chynyddu eu gwytnwch yn erbyn effeithiau’r argyfwng hinsawdd.

 

We're taking on 70K in May to help communities fight the climate crisis. This means we'll be covering 70 kilometres in various different ways in solidarity with millions of people who have to walk long distances for clean water or to sell their produce. 

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.

Tim Cymru off to a great start

We've started our 70K in May, each of us are doing different activities throughout the month.

I've decided to do a mixture of walking, jogging and cycling during the month and so on the 1st May, I laced up my trainers and headed out into the evening. I haven't really run for about a decade, and so the feeling of running again feels a bit strange but I enjoyed it and managed just over 5K. 

There'll be more updates to follow so keep an eye on this page.

Every pound you raise could help:

  • Provide climate-resilient seeds to help families grow food.
