Education

We feel that it is vital to educate the public about donkey welfare, and the proper way to care for donkeys in order to help stop cruelty and neglect

We welcome groups to visit us here in Liscarroll where we provide an educational talk on the history of the sanctuary. Here visitors can see first hand what amazing animals donkeys are. After you have heard some donkey stories and anecdotes you will be free to stroll around our beautiful walkways and see more of our donkeys and mules.

We do not charge for our talks or group visits, but as we are a charity, all donations gratefully received and we strongly encourage groups of all ages to undertake a fundraising activity, where possible, to actively raise much needed funds. Groups that have fund-raised for the donkeys and then came to meet them and see exactly where the money goes really have a satisfying experience. If you require any ideas or support our fundraising team would be delighted to provide you with information. Please contact us on 022 48398 or at fundraising@thedonkeysanctuary.ie for further details.

Note: It's advisable to bring suitable footwear and warm clothes, if the weather is bad.
