Our Direction Board planting trees to improve habitats at Brent Lodge in hopes of reintroducing the extirpated water vole. They were keen to talk about their incredible work with Cllr @DrAyshaRaza and how they've been taking youth equity and agency to a national level.

Many marmoset and tamarin species enjoy eating tree sap. To simulate natural behaviours, our keepers ensure our silvery marmosets have lots of opportunities to enjoy their favourite gum. 🐵💚🌴
It's a great time of year to visit our birds, especially the waterfowl, peafowl and flamingos. As they gear up for breeding season, the are at their most active and attractive! 💚💚💚

We are excited to share our latest blog post by the wonderful @BeauJensen from @HanwellZoo, reflecting on the importance of #conservation education reaching everyone!

Members of our incredible Hanwell Zoo Direction Board started a very exciting and ambitious 2 year project today by analysing the quality of the water in the river Brent. Watch this space...

Thanks to hardworking members Gayle and Noel who were, alas, defeated by this in the #RiverBrent by #PerivalePark. We're registering to become a @Thames21 #RiverActionGroup so we can organise more events to clean the Brent and the #GrandUnionCanal.
To protect our hardworking staff, our animals and our community, we request that visitors continue to wear a mask in our indoor spaces. Thank you and stay safe. 😷

Team of 7 assembled at ridiculously short notice to tackle the mess at Hanwell Cricket Club. Thanks to the team! Thanks to @EalingParks for collecting the bags. Saved us a hike to the Uxbridge Rd.
