We work to improve equine welfare and relieve animal suffering by providing free-of-charge education and support to horse owners in deprived areas.

We provide welfare advice on a case-by-case basis, coordinate the delivery of veterinary services and offer relevant education programmes.

The tradition of horse ownership remains commonplace in different regions in the UK, despite many of these communities being marginalised and affected by severe deprivation.

Many of the horse owners we work with are under 25 years of age and some have significant special needs. For some of these people, owning a horse is the only source of motivation to keep going or stay away from drugs.

We aim to provide non-judgemental support to these communities, as well as drive positive change by giving horse owners the opportunity to learn, improve their confidence and acquire life skills.

We rapidly respond to serious welfare concerns and work in collaboration with the relevant authorities to assist animals in need whenever this is required (see Working in Partnership).

Our fundraising target is: £1000

Gross monies raised so far: £306

Supporters so far: 37
