Donkey charity to host free fostering event in Wolverhampton

International animal welfare charity The Donkey Sanctuary is hosting a free, behind-the-scenes event in Coven, Wolverhampton on Saturday 1 October between 10am – 1pm to encourage donkey lovers to find out more about fostering. The charity, which runs a scheme where fit and healthy donkeys and mules are fostered by private homes all around the UK, is seeing a big increase in the number of animals coming into their care, and is looking for more people to provide loving homes for these donkeys and mules.

Those interested in fostering will get the chance to go behind-the-scenes at a home that currently fosters donkeys with The Donkey Sanctuary, learn more about the scheme and find out if fostering could be for them.

Michael Crane, The Donkey Sanctuary’s Head of Welfare, says:

“Our foster owners often tell us how much fun it is to give a loving home to a pair of donkeys or mules, and this is the perfect opportunity to find out if fostering is for you. Enjoy a morning behind the scenes at one of our foster homes and see if you too could count donkeys as part of your family with The Donkey Sanctuary’s foster scheme.”

Entry is free and refreshments will be provided. Places are limited - please call 01395 573 065 for directions, further information and to book your place.
