Why Mobile Clinics Work
Working donkeys are often far from formal veterinary facilities. Owners may lose a day’s income if they travel for care, and many cannot transport a lame or exhausted animal. Mobile clinics meet donkeys at brick kilns, markets, transport routes and rural work sites.

What a Clinic Can Treat
A field clinic can clean and dress wounds, trim hooves, treat lameness, rasp painful teeth, deworm animals, provide pain relief, address dehydration and advise on load limits, rest, water and harness fit.
Guide 3
Why Owner Education Matters
Treatment only lasts if the cause changes. Teaching owners how to fit harnesses, recognise pain, provide water and seek help early prevents the same donkey returning with the same wound weeks later.
Guide 4
What a Donkey Mobile Clinic Carries
Field kits include wound dressings, hoof knives and rasps, dental floats, dewormers, pain relief, antibiotics and humane harness samples. A travelling vet team plus farrier can treat 30–50 donkeys per day at a brick kiln or market stop.

Owner Education at Clinic Days
Load limits, water access, rest breaks and harness fit prevent more suffering than treatment alone. Partners distribute simple care guides in local languages at every clinic — welfare gains persist between visits.

Why UK Donors Choose WARN — Transparent Partner Grants
WARN is a registered UK Community Interest Company (Company no. 17298990) and is not a charity, so it cannot claim Gift Aid. The donation case is transparent partner-led welfare where support reaches practical field needs. WARN states upfront that gifts fund WARN's 17-country partner network across South Asia, Southeast Asia, East Africa, Southern Africa and South America programmes through vetted local partners — not WARN-run sanctuaries. Every gift is receipted; give one-off at donate or monthly at monthly giving.
