On World Rhino Day, individuals and organisations around the world come together to celebrate the five rhino species and raise awareness of rhino conservation.

This year will be no different and on 22nd September Save the Rhino will be taking part in the celebrations! We plan to mark the occasion by attempting to send 5 of our famous rhino costumes to supporters across the UK, to set up or take part in a local event on World Rhino Day.

To do this we need you. We would like to hear your ideas – what would you do with a rhino costume for a day?

Some of the things we will be looking for:

  • Fun, exciting ideas that share the celebratory theme of World Rhino Day
  • Ideas that get your wider community involved whether it be the general public at a street collection, or your friends and family at a rhino-themed fundraising do
  • Nothing too crazy – our rhino costumes are very valuable so we want to keep them in one piece!

How to take part

Click here to download an application form to fill in and return for us, for your chance to be involved.

For full costume Terms & Conditions, more information, or to tell us about your idea for World Rhino Day, please email Katherine at katherine@savetherhino.org or give her a call on 020 7357 7474.

 

Don’t forget EVERYONE can take part in World Rhino Day, with or without a costume!

If you are planning something for World Rhino Day this year or would like more advice about getting involved or raising funds for rhinos, please don’t hesitate to get in touch as we would love to hear from you.

Tree Works

In Rutland Ave Craighall Park over 30 dead and dying trees line the street. All killed by the borer or dying because of it. The posters on the trees , with reference numbers from City Parks indicate that they were reported to City Parks in August 2018. I was told in a meetimg at city parks head office last year April that they had a 30 day turn around time on dead trees! Doesn't seem to be the case here.

But don't worry, MMC Sifumba and City Parks say its "too early to declare the borer a disaster"

I wonder what the public think of this?
