Really Wild Planet has opened a new educational encounter centre at Affinity Devon, the outlet shopping centre in Bideford.
The centre opened in October and is run by former teacher, Kim Insull, allowing families to enjoy an educational visit as part of their day out in Affinity with all profits raised going towards conservation and community projects.
The centre is home to a variety of reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates and allows visitors the chance to get up close and personal with them. It is a state of the art facility and is completely unique to the area full of unusual, captive bred species from around the world.
Speaking about the opening, Kim said: “It has always been my ambition to open my own learning facility, it feels like a dream come true. When I met the Affinity team, I was impressed with how they go above and beyond to help retailers. We have a really strong relationship and they helped me achieve my goal by offering me a space which would suit my business and the animals.
“We are bringing something unique to North Devon with this fun and exciting concept, aiming to get people connected and involved with wildlife through educational and fun based learning.”
