Lyndsay – Animals Take Over Owner
My name is Lyndsay and I have always been around animals, even as a child. When I left School, I studied animal behaviour and welfare at college, before spending 3 months in South Africa volunteering on various conservation projects. When I returned home I continued to work with animals and was inspired to set up Animals Take Over, so I could share my passion for animals with Children (and adults too!)
My animals Take Over Journey began by seeting up a simple website, then a visit to a local library where I carried out my first Animals Take Over workshop. This was the catalyst to what has now become a full time career, educating Children and making memories all around the Northwest. Over the years the business has grown so much that we had to take on a new member of the team.
Junior Animals Take Over Team Members
Sophie
Sophie is my little Mini-Me, she loves all animals and is always a massive help at cleaning out time, she is never afraid to get stuck in! She has her own pet Rat and her other favourite animals are the Guinea Pigs!
Amelia
Amelia adores all animals, when she was younger she had lots of fears and anxiety when it came to handling them, she preferred to look rather than touch. Her confidence has grown over the last few years, she insists on being my helper to show everyone how to handle the animals correctly! She loves to get stuck in with the cleaning and is always on hand to feed treats and refill water bottles when needed!
