Story

Our mum Gillian Colson, who sadly passed away in February, was a great animal lover.

In particular, she loved donkeys and raising money for the Donkey Sanctuary in Sidmouth. Those of you who knew Gill will be very aware that she was a dedicated crochet and knitting devotee and she made many woollen items over the years for both the donkeys to wear and for the Sanctuary to sell to help raise much needed funds.

She also sponsored 2 donkeys, Bonnie & Marko, and was always very pleased to see their progress from the regular updates she received.

If you would like to remember Gill then please consider making a donation to the Donkey Sanctuary by clicking on the "Donate To A Team Member" link.

Many thanks on behalf of Gill & The Donkeys!

Thanks also from Mark, Ian & Nicola xxx

The difference your gift makes:

Your kind donation is an amazing way to honour and remember Gillian, ensuring her memory lives on by transforming the lives of donkeys and communities across the world every single day.

Your gift helps provide safe and loving homes for life for abandoned and abused animals rescued in the UK and Ireland. Overseas, your kindness makes a life-saving difference to donkeys and mules working with some of the worlds poorest communities.

Its a wonderful way to both pay tribute to Gillian and support the rights of abused, neglected and abandoned donkeys across the world.
Thank you for your kindness.
