Allow zoos and other attractions to open if Covid-19 safety measures in place
Allow zoos, aquariums and other attractions to reopen after safety checks by officials.
The majority of these attractions are charity organisations who are now in financial crisis due to the forced closure by the government. Its vital that these attractions open as soon as possible.
By opening up attractions such as Chester Zoo (who have specific safety measures in place) less people will gather in parks/beaches/public spaces. Chester zoo has made major changes in order to keep its visitors safe and are still unable to open their doors. Visiting Chester zoo would be safer than a day at the beach. Please let it reopen!
