Elisabeth Svendsen Trust

A large steel frame for a new donkey-riding therapy centre for children with special needs just outside Belfast has now been erected, and a ribbon cutting ceremony is being held to celebrate on Thursday 29th July at 10am.

Staff from the Devon headquarters of the Elisabeth Svendsen Trust for Children and Donkeys charity (EST) will visit the centre in Ballypalady near Templepatrick to celebrate the event. The occasion was re-scheduled after an attempt to cut the ‘first sod’ earlier in May was hindered by travel chaos caused by the volcanic ash cloud.
