We are 2 families that share a special love for animals and our local zoo is very important to us. We have grown up seeing these animals and want our children and grand children to be able to do the same.  COVID19 has affected us all in some way, and the animals will suffer indirectly from this pandemic.  Although now reopened, the zoo needs financial support in order to cover costs lost over the last few months and if there were to be future restrictions and lockdowns ahead then the zoo may not survive.
