Story

Lyson is a 38-year-old farmer from Malawi. Because of climate change he’s not had a good harvest this year. It’s so bad that he has to mix his family’s normal food with pig food – yes, pig food.

I’m fundraising for Tearfund to help make sure families like Lyson’s can learn sustainable and innovative farming methods.

Every £10 I raise can help train farmers to produce a harvest even when the weather conditions are against them.

Join me in standing with and supporting families like Lyson’s. Read more of their story at tearfund.org/meanbean.

Together, we can change the world.
