Sophie Hanmore's Great China Wall presentation
We were delighted and privileged to have Sophie Hanmore drop in for breakfast on the 3rd June and hear her talk about her recent trip to China. Sophie’s sponsored China Wall walk has so far raised over £6300 for the Cutty Sark restoration. Not content with her original target of £5000, she’s now increased it to £10000!
Sophie not only gave a fascinating account of her experience of walking (and stepping) on the China Wall but also a lively description of her encounter with Chinese culture in both traditional rural and modern urban settings. Sophie’s vivid photographs brought her adventure to life – particularly appealing was the way she captured the quiet dignity of Chinese country folk. Her visit to see the terracotta warriors was also beautifully captured on camera.
Sophie is continuing to raise money for the Cutty Sark so if you haven’t yet donated to this worthy cause and would like to then follow this link to her website http://www.justgiving.com/sophiehanmore.
