Founded by Virginia McKenna, the Born Free Foundation has grown into a global force for wildlife. Described by The Times as 'Big enough to make a difference, but small enough to care,' Born Free is not a big anonymous organisation, but a family of like-minded people who share the same goals. Our work to prevent individual animal suffering, protect threatened species and keep wildlife in the wild sets us apart from the rest.


The Born Free Foundation celebrates its 25th anniversary with a special event at London's Royal Geographical Society on March 18.
