Orangutan Loose in High Wycombe
Shoppers at Eden, High Wycombe and the local community in Buckinghamshire are in for a wild surprise as life-size animatronics take over the shopping centre this May Half Term!
Eden’s Roar & Explore event is completely free of charge for all families to enjoy, having been designed to educate and entertain children of all ages about the importance of endangered species. Throughout the whole week of Half Term through to Friday 31st May, the Buckinghamshire community are invited to roar into action with a different ”Meet & Greet” each day. Shoppers can meet an exciting range of life-size animals up close and explore the centre through an informative new lens to learn about the importance of endangered species.
The sell-out event has been so popular, Eden Shopping Centre has now released walk-ins for the whole community so that more people can take part in this captivating, weeklong event.

Eden Shopping marketing manager, Rebecca Gomme, enthused: ”this inclusive event is designed to provide local families with a hands-on, immersive learning experience this May Half Term. At Eden we believe learning should be fun and accessible, and what better way to captivated children’s imaginations than by bringing the wonders of the animal kingdom directly to them.’
