GO THE DISTANCE...30 DAYS : 1,500 ks
We've felt really challenged by the needs across the world as people in countries like India struggle to recover from the effects of the covid pandemic.
That's inspired us to go the distance this June! We plan to walk, run or cycle a total of 1500kms- the equivalent distance of Mumbai to Delhi to help raise funds for Tearfund's Recover Together campaign. We are aiming to raise £500 which would provide 30 families with health training and food support for 3 months, while they await the vaccine.
The only way out of this pandemic is to recover together. No country is safe until all countries are safe. Tearfund have partnered with the Peoples Vaccine Alliance to campaign for everyone in every country to have fair and free access to a tested Covid-19 vaccine, advocating for the rights of some of the world's most vulnerable people. In the meantime, it is crucial that they continue their work to prevent the spread of coronavirus amongst those living in poverty as they wait for a vaccine.
We are so privileged to live in the UK where we have relatively easy access to a Covid-19 vaccine. Maybe you've already received your vaccine, or are soon to do so. Please consider supporting our fundraising to help our global neighbours who still have a long wait for a vaccine.
