October Half Term at the Wildheart Animal Sanctuary!

About

This October Half Term, come and meet our rescued animals at the Wildheart Animal Sanctuary – including our newest arrivals, Benji and Balu!

Join us at the Sanctuary from 18th October to 2nd November as we celebrate the spookiest season of the year with all of our rescued animals! And, if you haven’t met our European brown bears, Benji and Balu, October Half Term is the perfect time to see them enjoying their new home before they slow down for winter.

While you’re here, make sure to catch one of our fascinating Animal Talks, where you can learn more about our rescued animals from our friendly and knowledgeable animal carers. There’s lots more going on at the Sanctuary too, and we’ll be open every day from 10am to 4pm.

PLUS! Don’t miss out on our Kids 2-for-1 Offer*! Buy one Child Admission ticket, and get one FREE for double the fun at half the cost! Our Kids 2-for-1 Offer will be going live on our website very soon, so keep an eye on our social media pages for updates.

*Please note, our Kids 2-for-1 Offer is only valid with one full paying adult.
