Opening times today: 10am - 4pm (Last entry at 3pm)

In this 90 minute workshop, we explore the methods in which we optimise our animals’ health through feeding and nutrition. With a dedicated team and our specialist nutritionist, we recognise the importance of a high quality nutrition and balanced diet.

This activity packed workshop encourages students to engage with real-life scenarios giving a true feel for the role of our nutritionist.

We cover a variety of topics using our own case studies, current projects and research including: measuring and managing nutrition; deficiencies and supplementation; and wellbeing and nutrition.
