Prior to this he was a national co-ordinator for Greenpeace Australia, and all his stories explore intimately our relationship as human beings with the earth. Adrian is also the founding chairman of a charity called The Siddhartha Foundation, which rents a three storey apartment block in Kathmandu, Nepal. There nearly 150 children, mostly Tibetan orphans, are given a home, schooling, and care.
In the year 2000 Adrian won the Help The Aged Millennium Award for his storytelling projects bridging the generation gap between youth and the elderly in small towns. Advertised as ‘One In A Million’ only one Millennium Award was given for 1 out of every 1 million people resident in the UK, and is testimony to the value Adrian brings to individuals, organisations, and communities!ver menos
