‘For Rangers’ are a dedicated group of individuals who are raising money for the welfare of rangers who risk their lives daily to protect Africa’s endangered species. Rather than just tell the story – the “For Rangers” team hope that by taking part in some of the hardest, most challenging endurance events on the planet, they can draw attention not only to the plight of Africa’s wildlife and the po
aching crisis, but the hardships and dangers the rangers are exposed to in trying to protect our wildlife - and in doing so, raise funds that go directly to rangers’ welfare. WHAT WE’VE DONE
The For Rangers team consists of individuals from Kenya, Tanzania, UK, and as far away as New Zealand. So far the Running For Rangers team have taken part in some of the worlds toughest ultra marathons: The Marathon des Sables, The Jungle Ultra in Peru, and Fire & Ice in Iceland, and the epic 6633 in the artic circle, as well as numerous marathons, half marathons and Tough Mudders. The Kayaking For Rangers team recently completed the Yukon 1000 – a 10 day 1000mile kayak down the Yukon River. The Riding For Rangers team endured a similar distance over 10 days in the Mongolian Derby. Between them the team has raised over $500,000 to date - every cent of which goes to the needs of the Rangers on the frontline of protecting wildlife in Africa. Team Members:Peter Newland, Hollie Woodhouse, Sam Taylor, Jacqueline Manson, Joss Craig, Matthew Hill, Ryan Pape, Keith Roberts, Holly Winser, Deborah Beaton, Shaun Leavy, Harry Dyer, Davey Hughes, Jamie Gaymer, Lorian McCullum.
