History

Established in 1969.

The Donkey Sanctuary Sutton Coldfield is the perfect place for animal lovers and families. Visitors have the chance to meet our beautiful rescue donkeys and discover their unique characters.

Founded in 1969 by Dr Elisabeth Svendsen MBE, The Donkey Sanctuary has grown into an international animal welfare charity that works tirelessly to protect donkeys and mules worldwide.

Our team of specially trained donkeys provides assisted therapy to hundreds of local school children with additional needs and disabilities. All sessions are tailored to ensure each child can learn, develop and have fun in our specially designed indoor arenas.

While admission and parking is free, as a charity, donations are always welcome to help support our vital work. Throughout the year we host a number of exciting events and can accommodate trips for larger groups.
