The Donkey Sanctuary

First thing first... you may all remember that my best friend was taken into hospital and after receiving all the get well messages from you, Lady is feeling better and almost back to her normal self. Occasionally I wander off to bray with the other donkeys and catch up with the latest news, but am never far from her side.

That was the question Paul Frostwick from Norfolk asked his girlfriend on Saturday with the help of two special donkeys!

We have a full time vacancy for a Farm worker/Groom at Town Barton Farm in Tedburn St Mary to work with our existing team of staff who provide care for our resident donkey and mule population.

At the end of August we were contacted about a donkey with an appalling eye infection in the Charante region of France. This is nearly 5 hours north of our French holding base.

The Elisabeth Svendsen Trust for Children and Donkeys (EST) is the sister charity of The Donkey Sanctuary. To help fund the work of the EST, the Adopt a Donkey scheme was set up. Each of the centres has a selection of donkeys available for adoption.
