After being on hold for two years, the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland (RZSS)’s volunteering programme has re-launched and locals are invited to come along to summer volunteer information sessions at Edinburgh Zoo.

Run over two weekends in June and July, the sessions will provide opportunities to find out more about the many ways volunteers can make an impact every day for the zoo, local community, and the wildlife conservation charity’s worldwide efforts to save species from extinction.

Sessions will take place on 18 and 19 June and 9 and 10 July. For more information and to register, please visit bit.ly/RZSSVolunteer
