In 2000, she founded the tiger conservation charity Save China's Tigers in the United Kingdom,[9] focused on preventing the extinction of the South China tiger, which is classified as critically endangered.[10][11] She and her husband headed the organization together until their divorce.[12] She believes the species can be recuperated at a wildlife sanction based in South Africa with the ultimate goal of rewilding in China.[13][14] She was removed in July 2012 from the board of Save China's Tigers by her husband, after that she divorced him and left the organization.[8]
China Tiger Revival
After her divorce with her husband and leaving Save China's Tigers, she started a new tiger conservation charity, named China Tiger Revival, based in London.[10][15]David Tang, a Hong Kong businessman, had held an event at the China Tang restaurant in the Dorchester Hotel in London on 3 October 2013 to assist raising funds for the charity.[7]
Controversy
She had accused her former husband, Stuart Bray, of misappropriation of charitable funds for personal expenses.[16] In October 2014, a judge ruled in her ex-husband's favour in-regards to the allegations.[10] She personally denied misusing any charitable funds herself.[8]
