Kimberley's Shark Trust Fundraiser - Thames Bridges Trek 2019

Sharks have lived in our oceans for over 400 million years and are essential for the health of our marine ecosystems.

But today, many species are under threat. Almost 1/4 of all shark species worldwide are now threatened with extinction. That makes them one of the most endangered groups of animals on our planet!

That's why I'm helping the Shark Trust to safeguard their future with this fundraiser.
Together we can create positive change.
