Burnham-On-Sea
garden centre opens new pet and aquatic centre
 Hundreds
of animal lovers attended the official opening of Sanders Garden
World's
new Pet and Aquatic Centre on Saturday March 25th.
Pauline
Kidner, Founder of Secret World wildlife rescue centre in East
Huntspill, declared the Pet and Aquatic Centre open and brought
several animals to help her with the job.
Peter
Burks, Managing Director of Garden World, based near Burnham-On-Sea,
said: "The launch day was great fun. As well as Pauline attending,
the Mayor of Weston-super-Mare, Councillor Charles Heard, helped
with the opening."
Those
who attended were able to get expert advice from the new Pet and
Aquatic Centre team and pick up free pet care leaflets.
Peter
added: "There was also one VIP special guest helping with
the opening of the Centre, Pat Dain from Bleadon, near Weston-super-Mare,
and her golden retriever called Jess."
"Pat
and 10-year-old Jess won the chance to help open the Centre after
winning our pet rescue tale competition. Pat wrote in with the
most interesting story and was treated like a star for the day
as part of her prize."
Animals
on site include rabbits, hamsters, mice and reptiles as well as
tropical, marine and cold water fish.
