Memorial Talk 2024
Winchester College
We are honoured and delighted to welcome Holly Budge, a leading conservationist, as our guest speaker for the Annual Memorial Lecture:
Disappearing Giants
Holly is the founder of UK Charity ‘How Many Elephants’ and initiated World Female Ranger Week. Her work has been celebrated worldwide, including by Sir David Attenborough and HRH Prince Edward. Holly is an official UN Women UK Delegate.
We need elephants now more than ever. For us to tackle and mitigate the impacts of climate change and biodiversity loss, we need healthy and thriving elephant populations. Holly explains how elephants are a keystone species that play a critical role, not only in balancing natural ecosystems and biodiversity, but in ensuring the future well-being of humanity. She has worked over a decade to raise global awareness about African elephants. Please join us and hear how her critical work has involved local communities as well as empowering female rangers.
This talk is free but please do book as places are limited.
For the third time this event is being run in the evening to give our supporters a chance to attend what should be a very entertaining talk.
Date: Wednesday 6th November 2024
Time: 7pm, doors open at 6.30
Venue: New Hall, Winchester College
