Thank you for helping generations of people across Essex and far beyond to fall in love with the natural world. Through your extraordinary storytelling, curiosity and unwavering commitment to truth, you have opened our eyes to nature's beauty, complexity and fragility and reminded us why protecting it matters so deeply.
Your influence reaches far beyond the screen. as President Emeritus, your values continue to guide and inspire our work every day, strengthening our shared mission to protect wildlife and wild places for the future.
You have inspired countless individuals and organisations to take action for nature, helping to shape a movement built on respect, wonder and responsibility for the natural world, including the 46 Wildlife Trusts working locally for wildlife and people.
From everyone at Essex Wildlife Trust, thank you for everything you have done, and continue to do, for wildlife. 💚🌎
