The air was filled with love and a chorus of donkey brays at Rest Ur Ass Donkey Sanctuary’s Valentine’s Day Picnic and Movie event.

Guests were offered sparkling wine and candy floss as part of their Valentine’s evening.

The donkeys eagerly greeted every couple as they made their way through to the sanctuary’s gardens.

The field, usually filled with market stalls or cars lined up during one of the infamous drive-in movie nights, was covered in camping chairs and picnic blankets.

Guests were able to eat some popcorn, drink a slush puppy and enjoy a night out with their loved ones in a beautiful and safe environment while simultaneously supporting one of their local non-profit animal sanctuaries. It was a win-win on all fronts.

RUA is well-known for its friendly and very cheeky donkeys, wonderful family-friendly markets, and movie nights where the community can go and escape the pressures of city life.
