Grab your Teddy Bear! Annual picnic fundraiser in County Cork

A Teddy Bears Picnic is happening in County Cork this month.

The Donkey Sanctuary in Liscarroll, Mallow, is holding a fundraiser event on Thursday, July 14.

The annual picnic is the most eagerly anticipated event at the sanctuary each year for both for staff and visitors.

Breeda Clancy, Head of Fundraising and Visitor Engagement says: “Visitors love coming to the Teddy Bears Picnic. Families come from all around to take part in the fun and games.” 

“This year we will have our Teddy Bears’ Hospital, bouncy castles, super prizes, arts and crafts, and lots more. We look forward to seeing all of you on the day and I would like to remind everyone not to forget to bring their picnic, rug and teddy bear!”

The Teddy Bears’ Picnic is a fun-filled family event that helps to spread an important message. The picnic is a fundraiser for The Donkey Sanctuary Ireland and helps us to continue caring for donkeys at our sanctuary and in the community.
