FAQs:
How long does my adoption last?
Your adoption lasts for 12 months from the date of registration.

How does it work?
The Island Farm Donkey Sanctuary is a registered charity which rescues and helps mistreated and neglected donkeys. Many donkeys arrive at the Sanctuary in a very bad condition. They are nursed back to health and are able to spend their days in comfortable, happy surroundings. By adopting a donkey, you are helping the charity to continue this valuable work.

How do I choose which donkey to adopt?
Read the enclosed booklet which gives details of the various donkeys available for adoption.

Will I be able to visit my adopted donkey?
Many adopters are able to visit their donkey on the farm in Oxfordshire. The Sanctuary is open daily from 11am – 4pm. If you would like to visit a particular donkey, please call beforehand to check that the donkey is at home as they are very active in the local community, sometimes visiting local village shows or country fairs. Please be aware that the Island Farm Donkey Sanctuary is not a riding centre. It is a genuine working farm which provides a real home for many rescued animals. Therefore, if visiting the farm, please expect it to be messy and muddy!

Will I be able to ride my adopted donkey?
No. Some of the donkeys can be ridden, however all of the riding time is given to children with special needs.

What will I receive?
Adopters receive a welcome pack which includes a personalised supporter certificate and a colour photograph of your donkey.

How long does it take to receive the supporter certificate?
This depends on how the gift is registered. If it is registered online then the supporter certificate will be despatched within 10 working days. If the registration is completed by post then this is increased to 28 working days from the date that the form is received.

How long do I have to register my gift?
You have 12 months in which to register your gift. After this period the gift code will expire. We recommend that you register your gift as soon as possible.
