I am doing the Three Peaks Challenge on the 5th/6th of September to raise money for Elephants in Nigeria. This is one of the projects being supported by ERM's UK Foundation.
A heard of 30 elephants were discovered in a forest not far from Lagos in Nigeria about 5 years ago. This is next to a city of 17 million people! It is incredible that they are still there and I am now involved in developing a project to create a Wildlife Sanctuary covering three blocks of forest (Omo, Shasha and Oluwa Forest Reserves). We hope to eventually reconnect these forest blocks so that the elephants will have a larger range than they do at the moment. The project will involve the local communities and state governments in helping to protect the forests and the elephants.
I want to raise £3000 for the project. Hence the crazy idea of running up and down 3 mountains in the UK in just 24 hrs!
Please support the creation of this elephant sanctuary in Nigeria by donating as much as you can.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails.
