We also welcome the ambition to achieve net gains for nature, specifically referencing the Natural Environment White Paper.

Julian Gardner Photo Competition Launched by Family & Friends in his Memory

Julian Gardner Photo Competition Launched by Family & Friends in his Memory
Following the end of the trial this week of six men accused of the tragic killing of Sussex farmer Julian Gardner last year, family and friends have joined forces with the Game & Wildlife Conservation Trust to set up an inspiring annual photographic competition in his memory.

The competition aims to encapsulate the wonders of the real countryside that Julian Gardner loved so much and has been made possible through a generous donation from Julian’s family and friends.

This annual competition will help to ensure that Julian’s name lives on by the funding of two magnificent hare sculptures that will be awarded each year to the winners of the competition.

The competition is being run on behalf of the family by wildlife research charity, the Game & Wildlife Conservation Trust based in Fordingbridge, Hampshire.
