Join us for a talk in the Tithe Barn by wildlife photographer and conservationist, Margot Raggett on her book series ‘Remembering Wildlife.’ The photographic books capture the magnificent beauty of Africa’s endangered wildlife and, inspired by David Attenborough’s quote “Are we happy to suppose that our grandchildren may never be able to see an elephant except in a picture book?” raises awareness and funds for grass root conservation projects, in over 24 countries across Africa and Asia. So far, nearly 200 photographers have contributed to those books under the banner of ‘Wildlife Photographers United’, selling more than 32,000 copies. You can read about many of these projects here.
Margot Raggett left a corporate career in PR in London in 2010, in order to concentrate on her love of wildlife photography. She was a regular 'Photographer in Residence' at Entim Camp in the Maasai Mara for a number of years and was also leading photographic safaris, before everything changed again for her when she saw a poached elephant in late 2014. In this talk, Margot will be retracing her journey interacting with and portraying the extraordinary wildlife across Africa.
The talk with be followed by a book signing of Remembering Wildlife, which will be available to buy from the Shop. We recommend booking lunch in the Ox Barn following the event - reservations@thyme.co.uk.
