Georgia Nanscawen

Georgia has always had a deep fondness and great awe for orangutans and by joining The Orangutan Project as an ambassador she hopes to spread the word and encourage more people to adopt an orangutan. Being selected in the Hockeyroo’s in 2009 at the age of 17, Georgia instantly became one of the youngest Hockeyroo’s in history and at 20 years of age she became the youngest woman in history to play 100 games for Australia.

“On the hockey field my red hair is a very defining feature and it is something that I have always been very proud of. I can't help but feel a certain closeness to our furry friends and I feel very passionate about doing what I can to help them.”
