Kicking off on Saturday 3rd July with the chance to meet one of the great ships of the desert, a stunning camel and a small and very cute chinchilla! There will also be an opportunity to find out more about animal welfare and protection at the RSPCA stand.

Over five different Saturdays during the summer, shoppers will have the opportunity to get up close to a variety of animals including the pony petting zoo, study birds of prey in action and meet some more exotic characters at the jungle road show.
For the budding David Attenboroughs there will also be the chance to win some fabulous prizes including ‘Be a Zoo Keeper for the Day’, ‘Riding Lessons’ and ‘A Day at the Farm’. For a chance to win, come along to an event and take part in one of the competitions.
