As many of you probably already know, I believe that we can all do more when it comes to doing our bit to help slow climate change.  Unfortunately it is often poorer countries, who have contributed least to climate change, who are often expected to fare the worst from the climate change. So when Dorian approached me to do a (rather long) walk to raise money for Renewable World, I couldn't do anything but accept the challenge and try to raise some money for a good cause in the process!

Renewable World is a charity based in Brighton who aim to help marginalised communities utilise renewable technologies. If you want to understand a bit more about the impact they have take a look here https://renewable-world.org/our-impact/

Our fundraising will be supporting projects like Renewable World’s Clean Energy for Health project in Kenya. This project will transform healthcare in remote and off-grid clinics in Kajiado West, southern Kenya. It will do so by installing bespoke solar energy systems and ensuring that energy-enabled equipment (such as refrigerators, nebulisers and sterilisers) are available and operational. This will mean that these clinics can extend their opening hours (e.g. into the evening), offer more services and, crucially, keep vaccines and medicines refrigerated (avoiding vaccine and medicine spoilage that often happens when these clinics have to rely on gas to power a refrigerator).
