SaveWaterSaveMoney's photo competition in association with Waitrose, the Gorilla Organization, Digital Photography Magazine and Photography for Beginners Magazine is your unique opportunity to win entry to the Hope4Apes charity dinner at the Savoy Hotel – and meet the one, the only… the living legend, Sir David Attenborough!
The VIP celebrity-packed dinner in aid of gorillas is on 27th September – and we at Save Water Save Money are absolutely delighted to have two tickets up for grabs. The gala’s being supported by fundraising charity the Gorilla Organization, which helps African villages access fresh water easily – so the communities no longer have to damage gorillas’ habitats in search of water.

* I've changed the end date to 17/08 rather than 17/10 seeing as the event is on 27/09 and the winner of the prize must inform SaveWaterSaveMoney by the 27th August if they require transportation and from where.
