Greenslate’s New Arrivals<br />

Greenslate Farm in Billinge have welcomed three<br />

new arrivals: donkeys Grace, Candy and Freddie!<br />

For more information about Greenslate Farm, visit<br />

www.greenslatefarm.org.uk/<br />

In a project three years in the making, farm<br />

volunteers adopted the three little donkeys just in<br />

time for Christmas from the Donkey Sanctuary in<br />

Manchester.<br />

Grace and her 3-year-old daughter Candy are both<br />

miniature donkeys, while Freddie is a standard.<br />

The donkeys will be an essential part of the farm’s<br />

equine therapy scheme for adults in recovery or with<br />

additional needs. Greenslate also hope to expand<br />

on their therapeutic activities for confidence and<br />

self-esteem building through the equine scheme.<br />

Ironically, the donkeys’ initials also match that of<br />

Greenslate Care Farm’s - GCF!<br />

Greenslate’s plans for the New Year also include the<br />

opening of the new woodwork centre for adults<br />

with additional needs to learn woodworking and<br />

upcycling skills.<br />
