It’s been great being Co-Chair for LettsSafari and spreading the word about rewilding. We’ve been working hard in restoring biodiversity, tackling climate change and inspiring communities globally.
We’re just getting started, but here are four personal highlights from an impactful year:
1️⃣ Rewilding Expansion: We’ve now planted 2,000+ trees and support 150+ endangered animal species. We’ve seen our first Nightingale and, at the same time, healthy increases in our birds of prey. Plus we’ve successful protected black fallow deer across our parks. 🌳🦌
2️⃣ Community Education: Our “Create Your Very Own Safari Garden” series empowered individuals to transform gardens into urban wildlife havens, promoting biodiversity from backyards to city streets. 🐝🌸
3️⃣ Global Advocacy: Celebrating World Rewilding Day, we spotlighted projects like Derby’s Allestree Park and the Tower of London moat transformation, inspiring wider urban rewilding. 🏞️🏰
4️⃣ Art Meets Sustainability: In celebration of Earth Day 2024, we emphasised the significance of combating plastic pollution and embracing nature restoration by creatively showcasing sculptures made from recycled plastic bottles in our Capability Brown gardens 🎨♻️
Looking ahead to 2025, we aim to expand our reach - spreading the LettsSafari approach to more communities, gardens, and even countries! 🌍✨
