Hello, I’m Charlie the Donkey
I’m Charlie, and I am absolutely excellent at making friends. I’ve been at Oak Tree since 2021, having come from the Manchester Donkey Sanctuary, and I settled in immediately because I simply love people. I’ll often wander over to greet a visitor before they’ve even had the chance to say hello. I’ve been told I have rather a lot of personality. Honestly, I think that’s spot on.
