Many of you got up close with the animals, having an opportunity to learn more about all the amazing work that Wild Touch do. The main attraction of the animals came in support of our campaign giving you a chance for your voices and concerns to be heard.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We also asked some people whether you felt that the Fuel Poverty Crisis is being addressed.
