Our personal message:

We're The Explore "We're Naked Under These Gorilla Suits" Running Team - thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

On September 27th we'll be joining around 700 other gorillas to run 7km through London's streets to raise money for The Gorilla Organisation's continuing efforts to protect the last remaining 740 wild mountain gorillas.

It's going to be hot; it's going to be sweaty; it's going to be uncomfortable; but it's going to be fun - why not come along and support us on the day, but firstly drop a few quid in the bucket?

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Gorilla Organization gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor us now - or we take off the suits!
