SECRET World Wildlife Rescue is hosting three days of family fun at its Highbridge centre later this month. The fun days are full of activities and talks about wildlife, while raising money to help sick, injured, and orphaned wildlife.
A spokesperson for the event said: “Unfortunately, as we are in Somerset, we can’t guarantee it won’t be raining. “We’ll be hoping for good weather, but some activities may be limited to what we can do under cover if the heavens open.
“This will be a great chance to see our new wildlife treatment centre and enjoy the interactive learning displays in the reception area. “This event is suitable for all ages, and all are welcome. Please note that some areas and footpaths are loose ground/gravel and are not wheelchair accessible.
“Well-behaved dogs are also welcome and must be kept on leads at all times.” Donations of pet food will be gratefully received at the event entrance. Wet dog and cat food in jelly, and dried cat and dog food are always needed, but no fishy varieties.
The charity is unable to accept donations for it charity shops on these days. The spokesperson added: “Our site is closed to the public except for open weekends, so this is a fantastic opportunity to visit and learn more about how we are helping wildlife.
“Please note that no animals will be on display; our work with wild animals is done behind closed doors and limiting human interaction gives them the best possible chance of returning to the wild.”
