The Snow Centre in Hemel delivered 20 tonnes of snow to Whipsnade Zoo

The Snow Centre in Hemel Hempstead in Hertfordshire has found a strange calling this week — cooling the animals at Whipsnade Zoo.

Yesterday (25 July), The Snow Centre delivered more than 20 tonnes of snow to the hot and bothered animals of Whipsnade, to help them cool during the July heat wave.

The zoo in Dunstable is just 14 miles from The Snow Centre, which has a 160m indoor ski slope, the largest indoor lesson slope in the UK.
