WHAT A GIANT LEAP FOR APE KIND!

A fantastic turn out for this event, our thanks go to everyone who was brave enough to take a giant leap for ape kind and for everyone who supported this event. We really hope that those who attended this event had a fantastic day.

This just giving page is still very much open for business, so if you have only just heard about this event or maybe you thought it was too late to make a donation, please feel free to do so. We really are grateful for every penny, no matter how small - it all helps.

Previous entry.

Thank you so very much for everyone who has supported this event and helped us to reach our target - Unfortunately Jeremy will now be unable to jump on Sunday - Doctors Orders! However please don't worry, Jeremy is fine and I am sure that you will all agree we want and need Jeremy around (with his back in full working order), working with our beloved primates for many years to come. Jeremy will still be here on the day, looking forward to meeting you all and supporting the brave person who has agreed to take his place.

So who is Jeremy's replacement? 

When it came to making a giant leap for ape kind - no other person could fit the bill better than Dr Alison Cronin herself She's very nervous and will need all your support on the day, she's not only doing it for the girls! but in memory of Jim,  we hope that you will join with us in supporting Alison on Sunday at this very special event in aid of The Jim Cronin Memorial Fund.

This event takes place this Sunday at Monkey World Ape Rescue Centre, Longthorns, Wareham, Dorset. BH20 6HH The park opens at 10am as usual and the event will start at 10.30am alongside the great ape play area - see you there!

Sponsoring Alison for her giant leap could not be easier, donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor Alison: The Jim Cronin Memorial Fund gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor Alison now!
