Twycross Zoo Comes to Hinckley.

As part of Hinckley BID’s continuing strategy to develop lasting relationships will local places of interest in support of our reciprocal marketing campaign Twycross Zoo will be coming to Hinckley Town Centre on Monday 2nd August.

Come and meet some small and friendly animals from Twycross Zoo in a special animal encounter on Monday August 2nd at Hinckley Business Centre, 76 Castle St. You can find out some fascinating facts about different animals from around the world and, if you want, you can even stroke some of them! 

Also hear about the not so friendly animals they had to leave at the zoo and what they are trying to do to save them from extinction.

The team from Twycross will also be bringing some real animal artifacts that have been confiscated by H.M.Customs so that you can find out more about the plight of endangered species and what you can do to help.

This is your chance to bring your children (for no charge) to listen to a 15-20 minute educational talk on animals and insects and, if you or they wish to, to touch or hold a chinchilla or other animal and insect (Sorry, due to legal requirements the minimum age for this event is 4 years).

 On offer on the day will be some discounted Zoo Visit tickets, together with Zoo newsletters, brochures, animal adoption leaflets, etc. There will also be a special competition for a ‘Win a Giraffe Feed’ worth £50.

To promote the event, members of the Concordia Theatre will be dressed in various realistic animal costumes and will be seen around the town.

To reserve your place(s) (numbers are strictly limited), please contact Steve on 01455 698494 and leave your name and phone number, together with which session you would like to attend – namely 11.00am, 12 midday, 1.00pm, 2.00pm or 3.00pm
