Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I am fundraising for the Endangered Rhino Conservation charity (here) and Mind (on the LM Enthuse page). The ERC work tirelessly night and day to protect its own and others’ rhinos from poaching. They raise awareness, educate and provide a safe space for rhinos and humans alike. Endangered Rhino Conservation (Mankwe) also go above and beyond and provide vital conservation efforts for PORCUPINES 🩷, giraffe, dungbeetles, Tsessebe and so much more in their hard work and activities.
I have been going to Mankwe since I was 16… 19 years and counting. Mankwe is my escape, my safe place and a home that never turns me away no matter what. The team have gone above and beyond for myself, but more so for the rhino and their fight to ensure this unicorn has the recognition it truly deserves.
I am also fundraising for Mind on the official LM Enthuse platform. Mind works across the UK to provide advice, guidance and a safe place to so many people - 1 in 4 of us will suffer with a mental health disorder at some point in our lives. Working in education I often see the impacts of mental health on students, colleagues and friends alike. If Mind can save/support just one extra life, or make one life worth living with a glimmer of hope, it is worth it.
