This is my tenth Donkey Week as a member of Donkey Sanctuary staff and there is one special lady I look forward to seeing every year. Meet Mo Flenley, my 'number one' donkey weeker. Mo has been coming to Donkey Week for an incredible 27 years, and she would have attended all 28, if the first year hadn’t been fully booked by the time she spotted the advert in the paper.

When I asked Mo what her fondest memory of Donkey Week was, she replied "Oh I couldn't possibly choose. Every year has something special, every farm is beautiful, what is there not to like?"

Mo's favourite thing about Donkey Week is visiting the farms and spending time with the donkeys, walking them and grooming them, and when I asked Mo why she loves donkeys she told me its because "they're just perfect and lovely".

The thing I love most about Mo is when I watch her grooming or cuddling the donkeys, the look of happiness and pure contentment on her face, to me, sums up what Donkey Week is all about. Sharing the love of donkeys with old friends year after year.
