Opening Times

Sorry, this event has passed

Transforming lives, one step at a time.

2019 marks The Donkey Sanctuary's 50th Anniversary and the inaugural year of the Dawdle for Donkeys fundraising walk.

Orienteer around the wider sanctuary on a family-friendly 5k or adventurous 10k course with your family, friends and work colleagues and help raise funds for donkeys in need - like the 29 Blackpool beach donkeys rescued from months of repeated abuse by their owners.

So far, the cost of their care has exceeded £100,000; help provide a safe and secure future for more donkeys like the rescued Blackpool beach donkeys, by signing up today.

As well as enjoying the stunning walks around the sanctuary, you'll meet some of the friendly resident donkeys, showing how the money you raise directly helps improve their lives and the lives of other donkeys in the UK and further afield.
There will also be pit stops for refreshments, and entertainment and activities to keep you motivated throughout the walk!

All proceeds go directly to the worldwide work of The Donkey Sanctuary.
