Enter Our Free Draw
Enter our simple quarterly free draw, using the form below, and you could win a set of tickets for entry to the zoo (or other animal-related attraction) of your choice. A fresh draw is held every 3 months, so if you don't win this time, keep trying! Publication of our newsletter normally takes place at least once during each draw, so if you subscribe you will receive at least one reminder that a new draw is under way. Entry is completely free (apart from your normal ISP and telephone charges for accessing the internet), and you may enter as many times as you like, but only your last entry will be included in the draw. Further details of the prize and the rules of entry are given below.
The closing date for entries to this draw is: 12 noon on Monday 7th July 2008.
The winner will then be drawn at random from all qualifying correct entries and notified within a few days. The winner will then have 7 days to respond with further details of their chosen prize options, etc. If the winner does not respond within this time, then they will forfeit their prize and an alternative winner will be drawn. This process will continue if necessary until up to 3 winners have failed to claim their prize, when the cash equivalent of the prize will instead be added to our fund for donation to conservation charities.
The successful winner will also be announced both on this site, and in our newsletter, once we have obtained their chosen prize. See the What's New page for the results of the previous draw.
The Prize
The prize for this free draw is a set of tickets for entry to the zoo (or other attraction) of your choice, subject to the following conditions:
- The 'zoo' must be listed in the directories of this site, and allow us to purchase tickets (or vouchers exchangeable for tickets at the gate) on the winner's behalf. The winner will be asked to nominate several 'zoos' as alternatives, should we be unable to obtain tickets from their first choice.
- The tickets will allow entry for up to 5 fee-paying individuals (i.e. young children or others who are admitted free by the chosen 'zoo' are not included in this limit). Of these 5, up to 2 can be full-fee adults; the remainder must qualify for some form of concession, such as children, disabled, or senior citizens.
- Tickets will be supplied up to a maximum value of £50. Where the number of tickets requested by the winner results in this limit being exceeded, we will choose a combination of tickets that gets closest to this limit, so that the additional cost to the winner of completing the ticket purchase is minimised.
- Where the chosen 'zoo' places limits on the time of validity of the tickets, we will attempt to maximise that period of validity.
- There is no cash or other alternative to the prize described here, except that the winner may instruct us to donate their prize to our conservation charity fund.
Rules of Entry
By entering our free draw, you are deemed to accept the following rules and conditions:

- Multiple entries may be submitted, but only the most recent will be entered into the draw. Entrants will be uniquely identified by their e-mail address in order to implement this rule.
- The winner must respond to our notification e-mail so that we receive their response within 7 days of our sending the notification, otherwise they will forfeit their prize.
- The winner will allow us to announce their win on this site and in our newsletter. This will take the form of their title, surname and approximate location (county or large town).
- Our decisions regarding any aspect of the draw are final, and we will not enter into any negotiations beyond those provided for as standard in the choice of prize described above.
- This free draw is governed by the relevant laws of England.
