One of Jersey's greatest attractions is the late Gerald Durrell's Wildlife Conservation Trust. Often incorrectly referred to as a zoo, in fact the Wildlife Conservation Trust has an entirely different focus to a regular zoo.

The Trust works towards saving species from extinction both from its headquarters in Jersey and through its links with conservation activities worldwide. It has already saved six species from extinction and is currently working to ensure the survival of more than 30 endangered species around the world.

The Trust is also a beautiful place to spend the day. I go every time I’m in Jersey, and this year was no exception. Here are some photos from my latest visit.
