About us

We're teaming up with Brain Tumour Research! But why?
Because of scary facts such as these:
Every two hours, someone is diagnosed with a brain tumour in England
Just 1% of national spend on cancer is spent on brain tumour research
Brain tumours kill more children than leukaemia
So, we're putting our superhero capes on and conquering brain tumours together.
We're looking for young, enthusiastic children to join in, and walk around the Zoo dressed as their favourite super heroes. Children must be between the age 2-8 to participate.
The walk will be 1k, starting from the bottom of the drive, around all the enclosures, finishing at the Jaguar Restaurant.
The event will start at 8.30 am at the Main Gate. The Wild Hero Walkers can walk, jump or even fly, greeting all the exotic creatures around the Zoo. Roar at the lions, squawk at the parrots and wave at the monkeys on an adventure to raise money for Brain Tumour Research.
Please arrive with plenty of time before the sponsored walk starts at 8.30. You will need to show your admission tickets prior the start of the walk.
Free admission all day for sponsored walkers, as well as discounted tickets for supporters and family. Children will also receive a certificate of participation upon completion.
Please head to get involved/fundraising on our website to download your sponsorship form. Please bring your sponsorship form on the day.
