My story

As a church family we re taking on 70K in May to help communities fight the climate crisis.

Participants can aim to cover ( walk run cycle scoot hop  paddle ) 70 kilometres ( or more)  over May  individually or as a family or group  (or set any  personal target that works for them  )

We' re doing this 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 or buy climate-resilient seeds, diversifying a family’s crop and increasing their resilience against the effects of the climate crisis. 

We re also hoping to get a little healthier & enjoy getting outside if we can 

Thank you so much  for your support

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.
