Love Your Zoo week is an annual nationwide event which coincides with May half-term where our members hold a range of activities to promote the important work they do with regards to conservation, education and research.
This year the campaign runs from Saturday 23 May to Sunday 31 May and our participating zoos, aquariums, wildlife and safari parks are offering a range of fun-filled activities to suit all ages.
A full list of participants can be found below.
