Abstract: This Lent Appeal document from the Bishop of Chelmsford describes fundraising efforts for Anglican Development Services of Mt Kenya East (ADSMKE) to support climate and conservation projects across five linked Kenyan dioceses: Embu, Kirinyaga, Meru, Mbeere, and Marsabit. The appeal aims to raise funds for community-driven initiatives that build resilience to climate change, improve biodiversity and restore damaged ecosystems, enhance food security through sustainable agriculture, and create economic opportunities rooted in environmental stewardship. Specific projects include tree planting and tree nurturing, farmer-managed natural regeneration, agroforestry systems, and sustainable farming practices to equip future generations with skills to care for the environment.
