BIRD AND REPTILE CENTRE'S FREE OFFER OF ADVERTISING

A free advertising opportunity is being offered by the new Liberty's Raptor & Reptile Centre in Ringwood. This new tourist attraction, which recently opened in March, has some empty wall space by the entrance and exit. This is an ideal opportunity for local businesses to place their advertising board. This would be seen by the 100,000 visitors which are estimated to pass through the doors this season.

The boards should be about 12 inches by 24 inches and can be made up, if required by the Centre. There is space for about 30 boards and once in place will remain all year. Said the owner of the Centre Giles Talbot: "If appropriate we would welcome some reciprocal help and ask the advertiser if they could have our leaflets in their establishment."

The Centre is open every day, and gives up to four shows a day. Two with the birds of prey, buzzards, falcons, hawks, eagles, vultures and owls and two shows with the reptiles which include a 15 foot python, iguanas, tarantula spiders, monitor lizards, water dragons, chameleons and other reptiles. Also on show are 55lb giant tortoises and 27lb giant rabbits. At the moment with Spring bursting forth, the Centre is alive with the cheeping of baby owlets and other young creatures.

Anyone entering or leaving cannot miss the boards. We would rather the space went to local Ringwood businesses who would have first option. Anyone interested please call me on 01425 476487 or on my mobile 07930 872564."
