...to the team at the Paignton Zoo who were the excellent hosts at the last Torbay Business Forum meeting on 6th June. A huge 90+ people came along to hear Dennis Flynn share the 100th Anniversary celebrations with everyone - from 50k free school visits, Animalilluminations this winter and 5 Biodomes over the coming years.
