Defra extends applications to Zoo Animals Fund
The fund provides support to zoos and aquariums impacted by the coronavirus pandemic.
Grants can be used to pay for essential costs and maintenance.

Defra has extended the deadline for applications for the £100 Million Zoo Animals Fund until 26 February 2021.

Launched in June 2020, the fund provides financial support for zoos and aquariums that have experienced a drop in income caused by the coronavirus pandemic. Grants of up to £730,000 are available, which can be used to pay for essential costs and maintenance, including veterinary care, medicines, animal feed and staffing.

Animal Welfare Minister Lord Goldsmith said: “I recognise that this has been an extremely tough time for the sector, and I would like to extend my thanks to all of those who have worked so hard in recent months to maintain animal welfare. We remain committed to ensuring the sector can deliver the best possible care for its animals.”

More information about the fund and details of how to apply can be found here.
