PROCEEDS from Dudley Zoo’s 2011 calendar, which features animals with their favourite Best of British foods, has been split between its Madagascar Campaign – supporting lemurs in the wild – and Help for Heroes.
Zoo chief executive, Peter Suddock said: “The calendar has sold tremendously well this year.
“We have despatched funds to Madagascar and are sorting out a date to hand over the Help for Heroes £500 cheque.”
“Our Madagascar Campaign was set up several years ago and to date we have sent more than £9,000 to this very worthwhile project.”
He added: “It is the first year we have supported Help for Heroes, but with the calendar’s Best of British theme we thought it a fitting and very deserving cause.”
