The guiding spirit behind BGR, through this decade, has been what I call “conscientious compassion.” Com- passion in itself is the quality that “makes the hearts of good people tremble with the suffering of others” (as the Visuddhimagga defines it). But for com- passion to become an effective antidote to suffering, it must leap out from the inner recesses of the heart into the field of action in a determined effort to liberate others from suffering. This effort is underscored by the word “con- scientious,” a reminder that the call of conscience bids us put compassion into action.

The concert was presented by Classic FM’s Aled Jones and Alexander Armstrong, and held in the presence of HRH The Duchess of Gloucester. After her visit to St Paul’s, Tania said she had formed new friendships with choristers from different parts of the country who shared the same interests, and described it as ‘definitely an experience which I will never forget!’ Tania has sung with the St Anne’s Choir for almost four years. “I love being a chorister of St Anne's Cathedral as I have always been intrigued by the concept of choral music and the resonating sound of the music in such a big cathedral as St Anne's,” she said. “Being a chorister has given me so many opportunities such as singing in Puccini's opera Turandot, singing with the St Anne's choir on a tour of Paris, and of course this wonderful opportunity of being able to sing in St Paul's Cathedral, London.” [email protected] Page !2 February 11 !

Since those humble beginnings the centre has grown into a recognised wildlife rescue, rehabilitation and release centre with an open door policy to all wildlife species. The sanctuary cares not only for primates but also rare and endangered species such as pangolins and vultures, as well as the not to be forgotten smaller creatures like hedgehogs and owls.
