Earlier this summer, many of you, our wonderful supporters, responded to our appeal to help our veterinary teams continue reaching working donkeys and horses across the West Bank. So this week, I wanted to show you some of the care your donations are helping to provide. Dr Eyad and our Hebron team recently travelled to Al

It may still be summer here in the UK, but our sanctuary team are already looking ahead to the wetter months coming up in Israel – and making sure our rescue donkeys will be warm and dry for when winter arrives. I also have a little update for you on Shemesh, our newest rescue, who is continuing

A few weeks ago, we shared the news that Dr Saif had sadly left Gaza. Today, we’re very pleased to introduce you to Dr Ahmed Thabet and the vet team who are continuing our work to help Gaza’s donkeys. Dr Ahmed is joined by two other vets and a veterinary assistant. Together, they strengthen our veterinary

Before we share this week’s update from the West Bank and the hardships they are currently experiencing, I wanted to let you know about a change to our Gaza programme. Many of you will be sorry to hear that Dr Saif has recently left Gaza to begin a new chapter overseas. We are deeply grateful

This week, I wanted to share some important news. At the end of this year, our Chief Executive Officer, Andy Foxcroft, will retire after many years of dedicated service to the charity.

I wanted to begin by saying thank you for all of your support – please know that you are directly helping donkeys, mules and horses in need. Your kindness is helping our mobile teams reach animals in some of the most difficult and dangerous places imaginable. We’ll be telling you more about the current issues

I wanted to share a lovely update from our rescue centre in Arrana, in the West Bank, where around 34 rescued donkeys are now safe in our care. Every donkey at Arrana has known hardship in some form. Some have suffered neglect, others have been badly treated or simply had nowhere safe to go. Thanks
