ASHFORD, KENT – The Big Cat Sanctuary is thrilled to announce it has been named as the official charity for four of Brilliant Businesses‘ upcoming events. This exciting collaboration will see the Sanctuary as the charity partner for the Luxury Business Show 2025, along with the Maidstone, Canterbury, and Tunbridge Wells Business Shows in 2026.
These events are designed to help raise awareness, encourage collaboration, and generate leads for organisations located in and across Kent and Sussex. Attendees will be able to listen to a host of guest speakers, including the Sanctuary’s Managing Director Cam Whitnall, and join panel discussions on trending business topics.
Attendees will also be able to visit The Big Cat Sanctuary’s stand to learn more about our vital conservation work as the world’s first Centre For Species Survival (CSS) dedicated exclusively to wild cats globally. We’ll also be talking about everything from our role in accredited global breeding programmes to our life-changing rescue missions, including the recent rescue of five lions from war-torn Ukraine.
Cam Whitnall said “The shows are a fantastic opportunity to connect with the Kent and Sussex business community, raise awareness for our vital conservation work, and showcase the incredible initiatives we’re undertaking to save some of the world’s most iconic and endangered species from extinction”.
At The Big Cat Sanctuary, our work is guided by our five core principles: Welfare, Breeding, Education, Conservation, and Rescue. Every visitor experience, from our overnight stays and big cat encounters to our photography workshops and educational tours, helps fund this essential work.
