RedDuck has been established in memory of my son, Raffy. We campaign to inform and educate HHV6 red flags and differentiate between symptoms of HHV6 and GVHD, graft vs host disease, to update outdated protocols when testing for and monitoring this virus in those who are immunocompromised, the virus that claimed the life of my son. Our second purpose as a charity fundraises for children in palliative and end of life care to enable them to access alternative and holistic therapies, as well as sensory support. The NHS does not typically fund this and when my son was in palliative care, I had to source and access therapy for him myself. I saw first hand the effects of this alternative treatment and the peace and comfort it offered my son. We hope to make this an option for families to bring comfort to their children in these excruciatingly difficult times.

Rewilding Britain’s vision is to see rewilding flourishing across Britain, reconnecting us with the natural world, sustaining communities and tackling the species extinction crisis and climate emergency. Rewilding is the large-scale restoration of ecosystems to the point where nature can take care of itself. It allows natural processes to lead the way, free from set outcomes and fixed end points. It encourages the return of threatened and missing species and embraces the ebb and flow of nature, allowing animals, plants, birds and the elements to shape our landscapes and habitats over time. Rewilding Britain champions rewilding and shares its expertise with anyone interested in putting it into practice, it influences policy and legislation, it helps get locally-led initiatives off the ground and it connects people and organisations, creating a broad network of rewilders and supporters.
