"I am excited to be taking a short sabbatical this year. I have a long list of things I’ve been wanting to do for a while and now is the time! One of them is to cycle from Land’s End to John O’Groats. I will be doing this with friends over a couple of weeks from 12 to 25 June, raising money for our UK charity partner, The Wildlife Trusts, at the same time. The Wildlife Trusts have a big goal to restore 30% of our land and sea to nature by 2030. I love spending time outside in the wild and want to support The Wildlife Trusts to protect green spaces for future generations. I hope to visit some of the Trusts' reserves during my cycle!"
- Susan Bright, Global Managing Partner for Diversity & Inclusion and Responsible Business
Why is Susan cycling for The Wildlife Trusts?
In 2019 Hogan Lovells' colleagues nominated The Wildlife Trusts as the firm's UK fundraising charity partner.
"The pandemic has shown how much people value their local green spaces and how connecting with nature can support our overall wellbeing. Our partnership with The Wildlife Trusts highlights our commitment to the UN Sustainable Development Goals. We look forward to supporting The Wildlife Trusts' mission to put nature back into recovery over the coming years."
The Wildlife Trusts' mission
The Trusts believe we need nature and it needs us. The Wildlife Trusts are calling for at least 30% of the UK's land and seas to be connected and protected for nature’s recovery by 2030. Making more space for nature to become abundant once again will give our struggling wildlife the chance to recover and also restore beautiful wild places.
