Birmingham Health Checks
Hi There,
There was a thread on here before about free health checks at Birmingham nature centre but it seems to have disappeared. I think there was a post in there that said there would be a health check in April, and I also got a message form Box Girl saying there was one in September. Would love to take my torts for their first check up so I can see if im getting things right... Is there only a check in September or are both happening? Thanks

We start at 10.00 am and go on till 4.00pm when the nature centre closes.
The queue in the morning starts around 9.00am and yes it is usually quieter after lunch but you never can tell.
