Jan Corlett |
Jan Corlett (Secretary) first visited East Africa in the mid 1980s . Then from late 1980s to early 1990s she lived in Serengeti where she made numerous friends, who provided a wonderful reason to visit Tz. frequently and a welcoming base from which to explore Tz. During these explorations she discovered the Jewel in Tanzania 's Crown – Ruaha N.P. - and was instantly smitten. Fortunately the Fox family recognised her condition and invited her to assist at their camp, which she very happily did during the next few years, becoming ever more captivated as each season unfolded. Her chief aim in life at present is to do all that she can to prevent any further destruction of Ruaha's unique ecosystem and to see the Great Ruaha River flowing throughout the year again |
