RZSS community programmes inspire and enable people to connect to nature in ways meaningful to them with the ultimate aim of creating a world where nature is protected, valued and loved. Making nature more accessible is fundamental because people protect and value what they love and understand!

Stronger communities have a greater capacity to care for wildlife – and through our zoos and our global reach we can help people realise the mental and physical health and wellbeing benefits of being close to nature. 

Our onsite, virtual and Bring The Zoo To You outreach sessions create a safe and fun environment where wildlife and people thrive together.

We aim to create a safe and fun environment where wildlife and people thrive together. Whether you are visiting Edinburgh Zoo or Highland Wildlife Park, or having the zoo come to you, we promise a memorable experience that will connect you with the natural world!
