    Chessington World of Adventures Guide

    Chessington World of Adventures Guide Overview One of three theme parks located in Greater London that are operated by Merlin Entertainments Group, Chessington World of Adventures combines a host of rides and shows with a world-class zoo. Whereas nearby LEGOLAND Windsor is aimed at families with kids aged 2-12, and Thorpe Park caters for teens and young adults, Chessington offers something for just about every age group. In addition to the theme park and zoo, the site is also home to the Holiday Inn Chessington, a safari-themed hotel that overlooks the Wanyama Village & Reserve area. History The origins of Chessington World of Adventures can be traced back to 1931, when a new zoo was established in the grounds of a fourteenth century country mansion by entrepreneur Reginald Goddard. The zoo was eventually acquired by the Pearsons Group in 1978, which subsequently merged with the Madame Tussauds chain to form The Tussauds Group. The newly-formed company embarked on an ambitious £12 million project to build a theme park on the site, and Chessington World of Adventures opened to the public in 1987.

Hosted by ZSL at its headquarters in Regent’s Park, London, the running costs including the salaries for the three part -time employees, are covered by an annual grant provided by DWF, continuing the support first allocated to 21st Century Tiger in 2006.

Mission Statement Our mission is to save wild tigers and Amur leopards for future generations by funding carefully chosen conservation projects. We work with good zoos, individuals and companies to raise significant funds for our work and pride ourselves in providing a transparent and fair way to conserve wild cats in their natural habitat. We do this by: Raising funds that significantly contribute to the conservation of tigers and Amur leopards in the wild Selecting appropriate projects based on strict criteria agreed by the partners Raising the profile of tigers and Amur leopards and promoting public awareness of their conservation through effective communication Defining Features The conservation projects we support are carefully chosen and subjected to peer review to ensure best practice and good conservation value.
