Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

With leatherback populations declining more quickly than any other large animal in modern history, each turtle is precious.  Matura Beach, Trinidad is the site of one of the most important nesting beaches for the endangered leatherback turtles - enormous reptiles that have been called “the last living dinosaur” and can weigh a ton and dive deeper than many whales.  Each year more than 2,000 female leatherbacks haul themselves onto Matura Beach to lay their eggs.  I am raising funds to go on a Teen Expedition, volunteering to help scientists from the Earthwatch Institute and an internationally acclaimed community organisation, Nature Seekers, patrol the nesting beach and collect information on visiting and hatching turtles to prevent the extinction of the world’s largest turtle.
