We protect endangered mammals in the wild to build a better future for everyone
Story
Now in their 30th Year, the David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation continues to support many organisations across the world.
In 2014, one elephant is killed every 15 minutes for its ivory with its population decreasing from around 10 million to less than 500,000 in the last 100 years. For the past 30 years, the David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation has worked tirelessly to save the elephant and, in acknowledgement of their 30 anniversary, they have invited local communities to help raise them £30,000 in 300 days to fund their elephant conservation projects before it is too late.
In support of this, Clarke Gammon Wellers would like to raise £3000 by embarking on the 24 hour Three Peaks Challenge on the 18/19 October 2014. A donation of just £5 will pay a keeper's salary for a day, or £10 feeds a baby elephant for three days.
Our courageous team consists of Tony Jamieson, Paul Monkhouse, Kate Henniker-Smith, Ken Ford, Alan Childs, Cathy Searle and Rob Pigden.
