Felix lived a remarkable life.

He also enjoyed huge success as a critically acclaimed poet and in 1992 established the Heart Of England Forest Project charity. His considerable fortune will continue to help the charity achieve its aim of planting a 25,000 acre native broadleaf forest in the Warwickshire countryside, details of which can be found at www.heartofenglandforest.com.
