My story

92 years of life. 71 years of marriage. Three children, six grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. One very special Dad.

This Christmas, I’m celebrating the life of my dad, William Alec Jackson, by raising money for Christian Aid—a cause that reflects his lifelong faith and care for others.

Dad grew up washing bottles and delivering milk for White House Farm Dairy, serving families across Wistaston and Crewe. Now, in his memory, I’m completing 71 milk rounds over eight weeks, one for every year he and Mum were married.

Family meant so much to Dad. That makes supporting other families a lovely way to honour his life.

In Ethiopia, deadly floods have washed away homes and farms. Mothers like Donnay are doing everything they can to protect their children from hunger and malnutrition.

Through Christian Aid and its trusted partner, Agri Service Ethiopia, families are receiving seeds, tools and agricultural training to help them grow food and build a more secure future.

Please sponsor my One Last Milk Round. Your donation could help families like Donnay’s grow food, care for livestock and provide for their children as they recover from disaster and face a climate crisis they didn’t cause.

Thank you for helping me celebrate Dad’s life by giving other families hope this Christmas. ❤️

How your money helps

This Christmas, you can support families in Ethiopia who've lost everything to deadly floods.

For mothers like Donnay, daily life means finding enough food to feed her children. Floods washed away her home, farm and most of her family's livestock.Hunger and malnutrition are constant threats

But your fundraising can support families like this to:

  • Plant new farms with vegetable seeds, fruit seedlings and tools.
  • Grow crops safely away from unpredictable floods with solar-powered irrigation pumps.
  • Learn new farming techniques to build resilience against the climate crisis.

This Christmas, please support families to make sure no child goes to bed hungry.
