Geoff Francis is a Saatchi-shortlisted artist, sculptor, award-winning photographer, published author of fiction and non-fiction with 13 books to his credit, a film-maker and poet. A vegan for 47 years, all Geoff's work and projects have had an ethical theme at their core. Geoff set up and ran the first paper recycling for the nascent Friends of the Earth in 1971, and Animaline for Linda McCartney, Carla Lane and Rita Tushingham in the 1980s. Geoff also has a long-term involvement with Hillside Animal Sanctuary and is a trustee of Journey's End Animal Sanctuary in Florida. Most recently, Geoff's vision has led to his co-founding the environmental charity No More Dodos, which uniquely uses sport and art to inspire individual action for change, and to support organisations working on behalf of endangered species and habitats.
