ROARR! is the UK\u2019s biggest dinosaur themed adventure park, beloved by thousands of families, both locally and across the country. This successful father and son team has taken the park to dizzying heights in recent years. They reflect on what prompted their decision to start up what is now one of the UK\u2019s biggest Halloween scare attractions, PrimEVIL! They even discuss their legal battle surrounding a certain famous dinosaur called Dippy! They see themselves as \u2018memory makers\u2019 and chat to Chris about how people, namely, their team members, and the families they serve, are at the heart of every decision they make. Adam is open and honest about challenges they\u2019ve faced, how new ideas get off the ground, how they managed during the COVID-19 lockdowns, and what they\u2019ve done to make their attractions accessible during the cost-of-living crisis that is impacting so many visitors. Martin reminisces about his time running Banham Zoo and Africa Alive, and why the decision was made to form a charitable trust, the Zoological Society of East Anglia, and \u2018hand over\u2019 his life\u2019s passion in the interest of conservation and animal welfare.
