We are pleased to report another successful year for The Donkey Sanctuary in 2022 as we emerged from the Covid-19 pandemic with total consolidated income of £57.4m, which includes £51.7m from donation and legacy income.

As we reported last year, the pandemic presented us with many challenges and opportunities, and we were able to adapt to this changing environment and still deliver many of our strategic goals.

We are happy to report that in 2022 activities were reinstated to pre-pandemic levels as well as progressing with many of our strategic programmes both in the UK and overseas. This resulted in an increase to our operating expenditure to £49.7m, an increase of 18% from 2021.
