When I was in Kenya 3 years ago my parents adopted a baby elephant for me and my sister Alexandra, called Basilinga. We went to see him at the David Sheldrick elephant orphanage in Nairobi and that was when I fell in love with baby elephants. Since then my godfather, Quentin Savage, has adopted another baby elephant for me called Ndoto. I get a lot of e-mails about his life and how he is. My uncle, James Currie, is also making a film about how the biggest Tusker (elephants with tusks weighing over 60kgs each) was killed and its tusks, the largest ever recorded on an African elephant, were never seen again.

I thought I would try and raise some money for the charity to help with future baby elephants who are orphaned, mostly because their mothers are killed for their tusks.

So we found a route that looks a bit like the head of an elephant. See the picture below and that's how we came up with the logo for the walk. It is 9 miles long. Together with a few friends I am going to try and walk the first 5 1/2  miles and bicycle the other 3 1/2 miles on Sunday 27 November 2016.

I hope you will help me by making a donation to help future orphaned baby elephants.

Thank you.
