Flying the flag for LionAid

Hannah Cockroft Thank you Hannah Cockroft MBE- Paralympic World, European and Olympic Champion!

One of our Trustees, Peter Cross, has kindly provided the charity with some promotional LIONAID t-shirts. Thank you Peter! That’s awesome!

Hannah Cockroft, signatureAnd how delighted are we to see who has already turned up proudly wearing one! Hannah Cockroft MBE, the British wheelchair athlete, holds the Paralympic and world records for both the 100 metres T34 and 200 metres T34. Competing for Great Britain at the 2012 Summer Paralympics, she won two gold medals. What a fantastic achievement!!!!

Not only has Hannah shown off her support for our lion conservation work by wearing the t-shirt but she has also signed it and given it back for us to auction off, to raise much needed funds for the charity. Thank you Hannah – you’re a gem!

And here is Jack Parkinson-Blackburn, nominated as one of LionAid’s first Young Ambassadors, with our Trustee Peter Cross (middle) and his wife, Marie.

Jack is a 14 Year old “Young Gun” speedway rider, proudly rides with the LionAid logo on his bike! Go Jack! The lions are roaring their support!!

If you have not already signed up to our mailing list, you can add your name here and keep up to date with our ongoing work and, most importantly, DONATE to support our work to conserve the remaining fragile lion populations. Thank you.
