I’m Karen and have been running Donkeys for Therapy and Fun for over 12 years. We have a few special miniature Donkeys and Ponies that have been trained for the use of therapy animals for care homes, nursing homes and SEN schools. Along with our therapy animals we offer event hire for weddings, parties, fetes and any special occasions. Please note no animals can be ridden.

We are now starting out again for the year donkeys have had a lovely rest . We need to keep the donkeys well cared for and to do so we have to have visits .walks . Events
We are self funding all these animals and every penny we make goes into the donkeys
We all work so hard here all voluntary to keep the donkeys
This past year has been difficult to keep up with the outgoings as everything we need has nearly doubled
We will also be selling our lovely fluffy donkeys again to try take much needed funds..
We still trying to get charity status so these donkeys can be protected for the rest of there life . I have been doing walks for two years trying to raise enough to prove we can make £5,000 profit .we also grateful if anyone has any fund raising ideas as everything helps.
