Story

I enjoy running, but training for the Kielder Ultra trail over the winter months has been challenging. I'm glad to be nearing the end of my training and am excited (and nervous) about the race on the 1st April. Running 50 miles in one day (why would anyone want to do that?) is a bit crazy, but many, many people have no choice but to cover long distances each day to work and to survive. I would love to be able to raise money to help support these people.

Around the world, millions of people who were already vulnerable are being forced further into poverty due to the ongoing effects of Covid-19, the climate crisis and conflict. 

Together, we can change that! 

With your support, I hope to raise money for Tearfund that helps to empower people to lift themselves out of poverty, live transformed lives, and fulfil their God-given potential. 

  • £22 could provide somebody with enough food for a month. 
  • £44 could provide four families with drought-resistant seeds.
  • £64 could equip two farmers with skills to help them adapt to the climate crisis. 

Every donation makes a difference. Thank you so much for your support.
