Palm Sunday is our busiest date in the calendar and our specially-trained indoor donkeys book up very quickly.
A Palm Sunday donkey has to be happy with crowds (many waving leaves), traffic, lots of attention and walking sensibly in an often noisy procession. It is a big ask and we spend a lot of time training our donkeys to be comfortable with busy environments.
We expect to be even busier now that the new licensing laws are in place, ensuring any donkey hired has to be licensed.
