The North of England Zoological Society – Annual Report and Financial Statements 2021

IN THIS YEAR’S REPORT This year’s annual report highlights our key achievements in 2021 – a year of extraordinary challenge and success for our charity as we started our recovery from the impact of COVID-19 and launched ambitious plans for the future. Together with highlights of the year, you can read more about our Conservation Masterplan, which was launched in 2021. Case studies show how we are achieving our mission of preventing extinction and how our people and commercial performance are critical to this success. In the report you can also find out about the secret life of the zoo, and what goes on behind the scenes in our complex organisation, together with details of how our charity is governed and the risks and uncertainties we face. There is also detailed information about our financial performance, and information on those who support us, either financially or who we partner with, in order to help us achieve our mission.
