Zoo calls for volunteers in its hour of need
ZSL London Zoo is seeking volunteers after three months of unprecedented closure.
Posts available at London and Whipsnade Zoos.

As ZSL London Zoo begins to get back on its feet, the organisation is putting out a call for volunteers who have time to help out. It comes after three months of unprecedented closure, which has seen zoos across the UK come under enormous financial pressure.

Volunteers will be required to commit to a minimum of half a day each fortnight, helping to assist zoo visitors as they make their way around. Volunteer manager Rhiannon Green said: “We need cheery, flexible people who can help visitors enjoy their day while respecting the measures that keep everyone safe."

For more information, visit zsl.org/volunteering. Posts are available at both London and Whipsnade Zoos.

Milk recalled over presence of veterinary medicines

Graham's Family Dairy has issued a recall for its semi-skimmed milk due to the presence of veterinary medicines in the product.

In a risk statement, the Food Standards Agency said the presence of the medicines, including penicillin, make the milk unsafe to consume and 'may be a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy to antibiotics'.

Customers who bought the product are advised to return it to the store of purchase for a full refund.
