Orangutans: A future in our hands

Thanks to an incredible £18 million grant from the UK Government, work on building the Global Conservation Centre at Twycross Zoo is underway. But, we need your help to raise £500,000 to support development of our world-class Bornean orangutan habitat
Dr Rebecca Biddle

Dr Rebecca Biddle, Chief Conservation Officer at Twycross Zoo and Vice Chair of EAZA :

"Orangutans are on the brink of extinction, and this project is a lifeline. But, we can only achieve it with your support. The build of our new Bornean orangutan habitat will help us amplify conservation work for the species, provide them with a world-class home, and inspire hundreds of thousands of people every year to take action. Every donation will bring us closer to saving these incredible apes, before it's too late. Please support us if you can."
