Zoo charity launches voluntary redundancy scheme

Zoological Society of London launches voluntary redundancy scheme amid financial challenges The Zoological Society of London (ZSL) has initiated a voluntary redundancy program to cut costs by £2m annually due to funding cuts and the cost-of-living crisis. ZSL, which operates London Zoo and Whipsnade Zoo, has been impacted by the end of USAID support and the UK government’s reduced foreign aid spending. The CEO aims to avoid compulsory redundancies while addressing the organization's financial struggles and adapting to the changing economic landscape.
