PETS’ Corner has once again retained its zoo licence following a successful inspection.

The popular facility, situated within Harlow Town Park, is now licensed to house exotic species whilst being open to the public for another six years.

The rigorous inspection, which took place in July, aims to ensure that Pets’ Corner is meeting all the expected standards that go with keeping animals of this nature. The inspector was extremely positive about what they had seen, most of which occurs behind the scenes, but also received great feedback from the public and students whilst visiting.

Commenting on the success, Councillor Danielle Brown, cabinet portfolio holder for community and wellbeing, said:

“Congratulations to all of the staff and volunteers at Pets’ Corner for another successful zoo licencing inspection. This success once again highlights the team’s hard work and dedication to maintaining the high standards required for keeping animals of all shapes and sizes. They work 365 days of the year, in all weathers, caring for the Pets’ Corner family.

“You should all be very proud – well done!”
