Volunteering at the Isle of Wight Donkey Sanctuary
Volunteering at the Isle of Wight Donkey Sanctuary is a great way to get out, meet new people whilst supporting animals at the same time. We’re a friendly team and you don’t need to muck out stables to make a real difference! We have volunteer roles to suit a wide range of interests, skills and availability.
Make a real difference with your time
Our sanctuary relies on the dedication of people just like you to help care for our donkeys, ponies, mule and horse. When you give your time, you know that every moment will help to make sure our animals receive the best possible care and ensure the smooth running of the sanctuary.
Volunteers play a vital role in day-to-day operations; from welcoming visitors to helping in the café and offices. However you help, your contribution will have a direct impact on the lives of our animals and our visitors.

• Meet new people and make lasting friendships
• Learn new skills and gain valuable experience
• Be part of a positive, caring team with a shared goal
• Support a much-loved Isle of Wight animal sanctuary
