A summary
Get ready for an exciting adventure at Trentham Monkey Forest, where children can explore a unique woodland habitat and observe free-roaming Barbary macaques in a safe and engaging environment. Walk through the forest trails, learn fascinating facts about the monkeys from the knowledgeable rangers, and enjoy a relaxed outdoor experience surrounded by nature. A drink and snack are included, and children are welcome to bring a packed lunch if preferred. It’s a wonderful opportunity to build confidence, encourage curiosity about wildlife, and enjoy fresh air while sharing the experience with others. **This is a drop off and collection activity (i.e. SEND children only, no parents or siblings)** Meeting Point: We will meet at the main entrance from the start time of the activity.

Cancellation Policy
Free bookings do not require refunds but as places are limited, please cancel if you cannot attend so that your place can be offered to someone else.

My experience consists of a leisure activity, on a specific date(s), and therefore the 14-day ‘cooling off period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 does not apply.
