The charitable objects of The TVCT are the promotion of conversation in order to protect the natural environment through the following; the relief of poverty and enhancement of security of parks, conservancies and untouched parts of Kenya. We truly believe that the key to combatting the ever increasing pressure on the land is through education, family planning and providing basic healthcare services. In turn this will help to improve the quality of life for those living in more remote areas, and encourage them to live a more sustainable lifestyle. There is no single solution to these challenges and so The TVCT supports a wide range of projects in order to make a difference. Each varying project is building block to the preservation of Kenya’s last remaining ecosystems, shared & adored by so many.

Story

Issy and Imo are taking on the Gaucho Derby 2024, a 500km ultra-endurance horserace across the southern depths of Patagonia. They will be self-sufficient and navigate their own way through some of the wildest and toughest landscapes. After too much wine at lunch, the pair agreed to take on this adventure and have self-funded the race. Therefore, all proceeds raised will go directly to the Tristan Voorspuy Conservation Trust, set up in memory of Imo's father Tristan, who was a pioneer of riding safaris in Kenya, and passionate about the protection of the last remaining pockets of wilderness. The TVCT donates money to a wide range of already established charities that together, aim to help animals and humans coexist in Africa, to preserve the threatened ecosystems and reduce the current pressure on the land. It is a purely fund donating charity, so 100% of your donation will go directly to the projects on ground level.

We cannot thank you enough for your support.
