No worry, chicken curry!

Follow the adventures of the Whittle family in India

I have just read the wonderful and inspiring story of the Whittle family, Geoff and Cherie, James (9) and Olly (11), who rather radically decided to leave their home, family and friends in the UK to live in India to help save the tiger.

After a tough time in the UK, with rising debts and a failing business, they decided to make a radical change to their lives and move to India where they spent a total of seven years, set up two charities and dedicated themselves to helping to save the tiger.

Their book is a wonderful collection of often funny, sometimes moving, anecdotal stories and a fascinating insight into life in India. With their two teenage children, it was not easy as they came up against Indian bureacracy, the climate and the tigers themselves (with a few narrow escapes!) as they learnt to survive in a jungle environment.

Although they have since returned to the UK in 2003, their work continues through the two charities they set up whilst in India and they continue to raise funds for these two worthy causes.

You can download a copy of their book for just £2.85 from their website.

20% of all sales go to their two charities: Patchwork Kids (Education for marginalised children in India and Africa) and Lifeforce (Tiger Conservation).
