  • APE RESCUE CENTRE Risk Assessment for School & Group
    MONKEY WORLD – APE RESCUE CENTRE Risk Assessment for School & Group Educational Visits 2020/21 Please note: We are a primate rescue and rehabilitation centre and not a zoo, as such the majority of our primates have been abused, neglected and exploited. We would be grateful if you could remind your students of this fact prior to entering our park. We have offered our rescued monkeys and apes sanctuary, free from abuse of any kind and we will not tolerate any behaviour from visitors that causes distress to our primates in anyway e.g. shouting, screaming, banging on the viewing windows, running up and down outside enclosures, throwing items into the enclosures, feeding our primates etc. Visitors that do not abide by the rules of entry to the park will be asked to leave and no refund will be given. Risk Assessment Guidance Monkey World operates under the auspices of the Zoo Licensing Act. We are subject to annual inspections from Enforcement Officers who look at the way we take care of our Primates and the safety of Staff and Visitors. The licence has to be renewed every six years. We strongly recommend that group organisers make a pre-visit to Monkey World and carry out their own risk assessment. We allow one free entry per class/group which is available on request when booking your visit. In the event that a pre-visit is impossible, this document provides a general outline of the risks and controls identified. It is essential that all children are supervised throughout their visit to us and that all attending the visit understand the following: the aims and objectives of the visit how to avoid specific dangers and why they must follow rules why safety precautions are in place and standard of behaviour is expected who is responsible for the Group what to do if approached by anyone outside the Group what to do if separated from the Group the time and place of departure of the Group that in an emergency situation e.g.

Your request has been handled under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. The information you requested and our response is detailed below: “I've been trying to compile a complete list of the zoological collections of the British Isles. I was wondering whether you would be able to provide me with a list of all premises which currently hold a zoo licence, and all former zoo licence holders too.” See Appendix 1 for a list that APHA hold on currently licensed zoos in Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales), as at 18 January 2016 (date of request). See Appendix 2 for a list that APHA hold on closed zoos in Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales), as at 18 January 2016 (date of request). This data is not complete as zoos typically get deleted from APHA’s database once it becomes inactive. Please note that Local Authorities’ Trading Standards departments are responsible for administering zoo licensing under the Zoo Licensing Act 1981, and APHA are only responsible for maintaining a list of zoo inspectors and nominating them for inspections. Therefore both Appendices have been produced from APHA’s list of inspectors nominated to inspect a zoo. The list in Appendix 1 does not include collections that may be considered a zoo but are exempt from the Act and therefore do not require a licence.

  • Ape Rescue Chronicle Three Times Per Year
    Letter From the editor It has been a very eventful year celebrating our 25th anniversary. We have had many new arrivals at the park, our building and maintenance team have worked non-stop rebuilding, expanding, and improving many monkey and ape houses and enclosures, we continue to campaign and collect signatures for our Pet Trade Petition, we held numerous events celebrating our 25 years, our rehabilitation and release work in Vietnam continues, and we have received 3 awards this year, the last inducting Jim into the Dorset Hall of Fame. He would have been so happy with all of these achievements. Charity No. 1126939 We now have more than 57,000 signatures - up from 31,000 at the time of the last ARC!! Our target is 100,000 so please help us UK Charity No. 1115350 to get people to sign for the sake of all the monkeys currently kept in the legal British pet trade. The legal trade in primates as pets in Britain continues to be a big problem for us and more tragically for the hundreds of monkeys that are kept in solitary confinement as pets in Britain today. Please help us with our campaign to give ALL monkeys the legal right to specialist care by getting a copy of our Pet Trade Petition and collecting signatures from family, friends, colleagues, or schoolmates. Over the past few months many people have helped with our rescue and rehabilitation work by donating goods such as fruit, vegetables, nuts, dried fruit, seeds, dog biscuits, garlic, peanut butter, honey, jam, vitamins, fleece blankets, sheets, towels, blankets, duvet covers, curtains, hessian sacks, heavy dog toys, tub trugs, baskets, “really useful” boxes, fire hose, rope, ladders, un-used stamps, A PE R ESCUE C HRONICLE medical supplies, biscuits for the team here at the park, and hand made cards to be sold in the shop.
