Meet incredible rescued primates on a day that really means something
Join us for an unforgettable Boundless Member Day at Monkey World, one of the UK’s most unique and rewarding days out.
Situated in Dorset, Monkey World is home to more than 250 rescued and endangered primates from around the world. From playful chimpanzees and curious capuchins to gentle orangutans, every animal has its own story, many rescued from the illegal pet trade, laboratory testing or neglect.
Set across 65 acres of woodland, the park gives you the chance to see these animals up close in large, natural enclosures designed to reflect how they live in the wild. Throughout the day you can explore at your own pace, attend keeper talks and watch the primates climb, swing and socialise.
It is not just a great day out, it is one that supports a genuinely important cause. Every visit helps fund the rescue, rehabilitation and lifelong care of primates in need. There is plenty here for families too, with cafés, picnic areas, a gift shop and a huge outdoor play area, making it easy to spend the whole day on site.
With the Boundless team there on the day to welcome members and keep everything running smoothly, this is a relaxed and easy way to enjoy everything Monkey World has to offer.
