Sir Mo Farah has said it was “absolutely heartbreaking” to witness the devastating impact climate change is having on child malnutrition rates in his birthplace of Somaliland.
Father-of-four Sir Mo said: “It’s absolutely heartbreaking to see children in these conditions through no fault of their own. Five consecutive failed rainy seasons have left four million people in Somalia facing acute food insecurity and almost two million children at risk of acute malnutrition, Save the Children said.
During his visit Sir Mo made a trip to a village similar to the one he grew up in, where he met Sabaad, a Save the Children community health worker who provides care for children in her village, making life-saving treatment easily accessible.
