This web site is to keep our friends and family both home and abroad informed of what we are up to at Lamb Hill. It is also the unofficial web site of the East, North West and Scottish Regions of the Donkey Breed Society.
The Outer Islands
Off the coast of Kenya there are a group of islands the principal one being Lamu. The Donkey Sanctuary has a base there from where it visits the other Islands. Each of these Islands has a part time Community Animal Welfare Officer who has been trained by the Sanctuary to care for the working donkeys on their island. They also employ a full time vet who is based in Lamu and who attends emergencies and other problems beyond the remit of the local welfare officer.
