  • Shark Trust Fundraiser

    Shark Trust Fundraiser

    Hi. I’m Orla, I’m 6 years old and LOVE sharks. I like to learn about them and they are my favourite animal. When I went swimming with sharks, I was sad to hear that 100,000,000 sharks get taken from the sea every year. I’m trying to raise money and awareness to save the sharks as I don’t want them to go extinct! The Shark Trust (who I’m raising money for) work hard around the world to protect sharks. I’d be really thankful for your support. Orla.
