MUSIC lovers of all ages are invited to ‘dance for the donkeys’ at an event set to raise funds for a Hayling Island animal sanctuary.

The family fun and live music event will take place at Lily’s Bar on October 30.

Money raised will go to support the Hayling Island Donkey Sanctuary, which provides ex-working donkeys with a safe and peaceful environment.

There are 23 retired and rescue donkeys at the sanctuary who will benefit from the fundraising event.
