2022 IS BORN FREE'S 'YEAR OF THE LION'
Dear John
Today, in honour of the 100th birthday of our charity’s fearless co-founder Bill Travers MBE, we’re celebrating the launch of our ‘Year of the Lion’ - a year of urgent action for lions with special lion-themed ways to support our work and get involved.
Bill Travers was a lion of a man. Sadly, he died in 1984, but his unstoppable energy, compassion and strength live on in the work of our charity.

FOREVER LIONS
Sadly, lion numbers have been decimated from 200,000 a century ago to just 20,000 today. But there is hope and throughout the year, we’ll be fighting for a future for lions, and YOU can join us!
We’ve set up a Forever Lions Fund ( [link removed] ) in memory of Bill, a vital fundraising campaign, with funds raised throughout the year directly helping to address the plight of lions around the world.
DONATE TODAY! ( [link removed] )
Together we can work to halt the devastating decline in wild lions which has seen numbers fall by 90% since the film Born Free was made; we can campaign for the welfare of lions exploited in captivity and rescue individuals in need; we can make real changes to the cruel trophy hunting and canned hunting industries; and we can inspire future generations to protect lions. Forever.

With YOUR generous support, we can make real and permanent change.
PLUS: Look out for other ways to get involved throughout the year, including special events, competitions and activities, kicking off in London this January with the spectacular Born Free Forever exhibition ( [link removed] ). We’ll also be in touch soon to invite you to join the Born Free Pride, an exciting opportunity to receive exclusive updates and content throughout the year.
Let’s make 2022 a year to remember,
and a year of action for lions!
Thank you,
The Born Free Team
