Well my lovely friends - today is the day! Minidonk HQ will be packed with volunteers, we’ve got a live satellite feed to the stables (no we haven’t) and we are all waiting to find out how we did in The National Lottery People’s projects. If you are in the Anglia East TV region, watch the 6 o’clock news. If you are not, wait and listen carefully and you might hear the mighty roar of the Minidonk team (we hope) and if you miss either, we will post after 6.30 whatever the outcome. ... See MoreSee Less

Voting now closed. Thank you to everyone who voted for us. Winners will be announced on the Anglia ITV news at 6pm on Thursday 18th April...... we are keeping everything 🤞. But, more importantly, we have been up to our usual antics. Miss Millie was feeling full of the joys of spring and Bo Peep was her usual calm and lovely self. We helped a lovely lady celebrate a special birthday as well. ... See MoreSee Less

Feedback from previous visits

It was all fantastic but the room visits were the best. Had me in tears the reactions we had.

The main highlight has to be with one resident who never leaves her bedroom. This lady suffers from dementia and the donkeys visited her in her bedroom. As soon as she saw them her face lit up. She absolutely loved them.

Amazing reactions of residents, especially those with restricted communication. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Smiles all round, thank you.

The donkeys came to visit our tenants and Pippin went into the room of a very poorly lady. The look on her face was priceless. Thank you for bringing some joy and love to our setting.

You get smiles where nothing else can – thank you so much

You guys (most of all the donkeys) are awesome. Bringing joy and happiness to people who can’t get out easily. Keep up the good work

It was the most special visit for our residents, staff and extended families. Thank you so much.

Thank you, they were amazing. The patients loved them.

Your visit encouraged the residents outside into the sunshine. They enjoyed stroking and interacting with the donkeys as well as chatting to each other. So nice to see them enjoying themselves. Thank you.

You kindly took two little donkeys into my wife’s room, to say it made our day is very much an understatement, in fact my wife said ‘it is something I will never forget’.

The residents enjoyed interacting with the donkeys and being able to touch them. They were interested to hear all about them and they loved them being in the lounge as most of the residents are not able to get outside.

We were delighted with your visit, all ages and abilities loved the friendly donkeys.

My mum is one of the residents you refer to. I visited her this evening, words are a struggle but she was definitely trying to tell me about the donkeys! Thank you so much for visiting her.

Pixie and Bo Peep were the best behaved donkeys ever, our residents thoroughly enjoyed their visit… I cannot recommend Sarah, her donkeys and fabulous volunteers enough.

Highlights were being able to have the donkeys up close even for residents nursed in bed, to be able to tell residents’ families about the visit and have photos to show them. Sarah and volunteers went out of their way to make it a special visit. More visits, more donkeys, we love you!
