Dear John,

Today is your last chanceĀ to take action against these cruel new zoo plans! The deadline for objecting is tomorrow on the 24th April!

You may remember back in March 2023 we brought you the great news that a mobile zoo named Zoo2U in Cheshire, had their planning permission to build a new zoo denied!Ā 

But the fight is not over - as this zoo has resubmitted plans to Cheshire East council, in the hopes they can now get the plans approved.Ā 

Zoo2U are wanting to expand their mobile zoo business (which was initially run from their private house) on land owned by Bidlea Dairy Farm. They have already flouted the legal planning process by building many of the new enclosures already, even over-confidently "purchasing" more animals as part of this expansion. You can read more about the plans here!
TAKE ACTION TO STOP THESE CRUEL PLANS!
Last time these plans were with the council, hundreds of you sent objections through.Ā 

And amazingly, the council listened and rejected the plans, stating thatĀ the project was ā€œunacceptable in principleā€, due to the encroachment onto the countryside and harm posed to its environment and appearance, and its failure to demonstrate how it would improve the economic, social and environmental conditions of the area.

However, since then, the mobile zoo Zoo2U have submitted amended plans and details to Cheshire East Council.

We have until the 24th April 2024 to once again object. So tomorrow is the last day to take action for animals!

Sadly, the council will only accept objections via theirĀ online form on their website.

We have a draft objection letter on our website for you to copy and paste or to amend and use your own. You can find this via the link box below. Please remember however, that animal welfare issues are not considered in planning applications or objections. Therefore, we have mainly discussed environmental issues and those affecting the wildlife of the area. Ā 

If you wish to submit an objection to this proposed new zoo, please do so here:

We have the animals at the focus of everything we do at Freedom for Animals. We know the suffering and damage zoos cause to innocent individuals. Itā€™s the 21st century, and we should be closing zoos down, not opening new ones!

We have submitted an objection to application 24/1108C with Cheshire East Council, urging them to again reject the planning application for the new zoo at The Orchards Farm Twemlow Lane, Holmes Chapel, CW4. And now we need your help to do the same!Ā 

Thank you for taking the time to take this action! Without your dedicated support, we could not help animals by fighting for their freedom. I will of course keep you updated on how this campaign progresses!

For the animals,
