Volunteer Scheme
Want to do something GREAT?
Volunteers provide visitors with a unique and personal Zoo experience. Every year hundreds of volunteers donate thousands of hours to fulfill our objectives of:
- Education
- Conservation
- Recreation
Sealion's Rock
Volunteers can help in a number of ways, either planning special events, education, office duties or caring for our animals. We have a wide range of opportunities to suit your schedule and interests. To find out more email education@welshmountainzoo.org
Dan Watkins began volunteering at the Welsh Mountain Zoo in 2007. Dan was studying Marine Biology and Zoology at the University of Wales, Bangor and found that volunteering at the Zoo helped him to put in to practice things he had learnt while studying.
A trainee position opened up at the Zoo while Dan was volunteering and after undertaking this role, in 2008 Dan became a member of the Presentation and Training Team. Today, Dan can be seen training our family of Californian Sea Lions.
