Press news from the Wildlife Trust
Here's some good news today
The Wildlife Trusts’ President is King
Simon King OBE to take over role from Professor Aubrey Manning OBE
24th November, 2010
Simon King OBE – renowned wildlife programme-maker, cameraman, photographer and presenter – will today be appointed President of The Wildlife Trusts. And, at 47, King will be the youngest President in the organisation’s 98 year history.
On accepting the role, King said:
“I am honoured to be the next President of The Wildlife Trusts. I am particularly excited by the opportunity to encourage the millions of people in the UK who are already inspired by nature into taking action for it. Many of us have become disconnected from the natural world. Children and adults alike have developed a nature deficit.
“However The Wildlife Trusts’ vision for A Living Landscape and Living Seas embraces communities as a whole, for wildlife and people. Local Wildlife Trusts work to include everyone who has an interest in our natural world. The UK has some of the most magnificent, sensual and fulfilling natural phenomena in the world. However prickly the gorse and forceful the blackbird’s song, it’s vulnerable. The Wildlife Trusts have achieved a tremendous amount over the years with their local knowledge which, together, creates a powerful UK movement. And I am proud to be part of it.”
Professor Aubrey Manning OBE, outgoing President, said:
“I am delighted to hand over this very special role to Simon and welcome him as the new President for The Wildlife Trusts. Simon is already an extraordinary asset to the movement in his role as vice president and a great ambassador for the natural world, on land and at sea. He represents and promotes our interests to great effect. Simon’s input over the next five years will be invaluable.”
King follows in the illustrious paths of Sir David Attenborough and David Bellamy as well as Aubrey Manning. Simon was appointed as a vice president of The Wildlife Trusts in 2008. He is also President of Avon Wildlife Trust and Patron of Somerset Wildlife Trust.
The Wildlife Trusts’ other vice presidents are Sir David Attenborough OM CH CVO CBE FRS, Professor J Chris Baines, Chris Packham, Nick Baker, Professor David MacDonald CBE DSc FRSE, Bill Oddie OBE, Julian Pettifer OBE, Professor Sir Robert Worcester KBE DL and Bill Bolsover.

Re: Simon King Wildlife Blog
Simon has updated his diary - March 2011
some very exciting news about a little cheetah cub named Sheba, who is now being cared for at Sirikoi in Lewa (a fantastic place that we've stayed at). I won't say more but he did tell Pete & I when we met last week at the RGS talk and it sounds like it will be quite an adventure raising her.

Aaaaand, I have also been increasingly closely involved with a new Live Event that will take place at the end of April next year. The London Wild Bird Watch will take place at the WWT reserve at the London Wetland Centre and promises to be something very special. I can’t give too much away yet, but do put the dates in your diary of the 27th – 29th April 2012. Not to be missed!!
