The Donkey Sanctuary has joined together once again with World Expeditions, a company specialising in charity treks, and organised a fabulous sponsored walking challenge in the northern region of India, including a special visit to the wild donkey reserve as well as the opportunity to experience first-hand the work that is carried out by our mobile clinics. The challenge will take place on 14-27 May 2011.
