Coronavirus (COVID-19)

The Living Planet centre, as the headquarters of WWF -UK, is first and foremost  a working office with over 500 members of staff. Whilst many COVID restrictions have now been lifted by the UK Government we must ensure all our staff return safely and be settled before we are able to open up  to the general public. Therefore we are not able to offer our full range of activities just yet!

The ‘WWF Interactive Visitor Experience' is closed until further notice. Our Family workshops are not currently running.

Bookings are now open for our Behind the Scenes Tours - Starting again from October 2022

What our customers say...

"The venue is ideally suited for easy access, being close to the station and car park, the conference hall itself is big but not overwhelming and having the mezzanine outside for drinks, food and networking works really well.

I have no hesitation in recommending the Living Planet Centre as THE place to  hold a successful event."  

- Pauline Hedge, Easily England

 

“Our recent event at the Living Planet Centre was a complete success. We were really impressed with the care and attention given by staff throughout the entire process, from planning to cleanup. We’d hold another event at the building in a flash.”

-Nathaniel Aaron Moore, Hopkins Architects
