VIDEO: Girl does goat yoga for charity
But this is what 12-year-old Emily Twinn-Dorey did to raise money for Naomi House and Jacksplace Children’s Hospice.
The Littlehampton Academy student travelled to Sarisbury Green in Hampshire for the yoga session, held by Mucky Bucket Farm on January 28.

She has raised more than £800 so far.
She said her friends thought she was ‘absolutely bonkers’ when she suggested it, but the day was ‘fantastic’: “Everyone should have a go.”
Yoga is meant to be relaxing – but the goats created more laughs. Emily said: “They just kept pooing everywhere, and they weed on one of the ladies. She just started laughing; it was so funny.”
Her next challenge is an indoor skydive, followed by a charity fun day on February 16, at East Preston Sports and Social Club.
