The Donkey Sanctuary is set in the beautiful rolling countryside of County Cork just outside the village of Liscarroll in Ireland.

Over 5,200 donkeys from all parts of Ireland have been taken into our care here in Ireland since The Donkey Sanctuary in Ireland was set up. Many donkeys have been abandoned or put in a field and given little or no attention after having worked for their owners for years, hauling peat or pulling a cart. We strongly believe that their suffering should cease.

We feel that it is very important to offer a service to our supporters who wish to remember loved ones by way of our memorial scheme.

Many people choose to remember someone special in their lives like a family member, friend or a dear pet by making a donation to The Donkey Sanctuary in their memory.

Our Sanctuary in Liscarroll is a tranquil place and perfect for quiet reflection and meditation. The serene environment here enables you to appreciate the beauty of life whilst being surrounded by humble and loving donkeys.
