A Norfolk family attraction is hailing a successful weekend as it fully reopened for the first time after lockdown measures eased.
Banham Zoo had dedicated its first five days to members only from April 12, but the doors were open to everyone from Saturday with pre-booking essential due to limited capacity as a Covid precaution.

Reflecting on the two days since fully reopening, a spokesman for Banham Zoo said: It has been a really busy weekend. The guests and visitors are delighted to return to the park.
The showground is a huge site which is naturally spaced out in the fresh air. At the moment internet sales are looking quite good. It is early days.
