Happy Birthday Del Boy the donkey!!
Come along and join us at Redwings Ada Cole on Sunday 13th May to help us celebrate the birthday of brand new adoption donkey Del Boy! Del Boy only joined the adoption club this year so this will be his first ever birthday party at Redwings; please come along and help us make it extra special for him! Del will be having a birthday parade at 1pm on the day, where he will be joined by his best friend Rodney and that will be your chance to sing Happy Birthday to him and watch him enjoy his special donkey-friendly birthday cake! Let's just hope he behaves himself!
There will be lots more fun and games going on all day, and as always, entry is free! We can't wait to see you, thanks for all your support!
For more information, please telephone us on 0870 040 0033 or email info@redwings.co.uk. We hope to see you soon!
Ada Cole Rescue Centre, Essex
See Welfare in Action!
In October 2005 Redwings merged with the Ada Cole Memorial Stables in Essex, a rescue centre established in memory of an amazing lady who campaigned for animal welfare. You can meet more than 50 rescued horses, ponies, donkeys and mules at the site - some are permanent residents while others are looking for loving homes through the charity’s Guardianship Scheme.
The Ada Cole centre is also the permanent home of our gorgeous adoption horses and donkeys Dolly, Finnegan, Harry, Katy, Misfit and Del Boy. They can’t wait to meet you!
What to do
At our Ada Cole centre there are walking tours and horse care demos as well as a gift shop and information centre on site where you can adopt a pony, buy gifts or find out more about the horsey residents and the charity's welfare work.
We also serve light refreshments including hot drinks and delicious cakes!
