This summer, like never before, we are called to be signs of hope for our world. Your action for hope can mean fewer families have to ask: how do I keep my child safe if we dont have water for hand-washing?

Story

During the week of Monday 10 August, the second week of my summer break, I will be cycling 100 miles to raise funds for CAFOD's coronavirus appeal.

I have worked for CAFOD in the past, and witnessed first hand the amazing work they do with partner organisations in some of the world's most vulnerable communities.

Around the world, coronavirus is making it harder for families to feed their children, for hardworking farmers to earn a living, and for children to get the education they deserve.

CAFOD is working to help communities not only to survive the effects of coronavirus, but to rebuild their lives in the long term - with love, dignity and hope.

Through this challenge, I hope to play a small part in responding to CAFOD's invitation to be signs of hope for our world this summer. I will be posting updates of how I am getting on.

Thank you so much for your support!
