Story

Just when we thought things were starting to return to normal after the first Lockdown, we now find ourselves in Lockdown #2. We have been ordered to close our stable doors once again.

With no activities taking place we get no income. With no income we somehow need to find the money to feed and look after our amazing therapy horses and ponies. And, with Winter looming, Lockdown #2 will be tougher than Lockdown #1.

These are difficult times for everyone, but if you can possibly help us by making a donation no matter how small we (and our ponies) would be eternally grateful.

£5 buys a salt lick - full of essential nutrients

£10 buys a hay net or head collar and lead rein

£20 buys a grooming kit, mucking out fork or bag of horse feed

£30 buys a large bale of straw enough to make a weeks worth of warm beds or a Virkon disinfectant (essential during COVID)

£35 buys a large bale of hay each week we get through two large bales: one for the field and one for the stables

£50 buys a wheelbarrow

£75 buys a full set of horse shoes

£100 buys a warm winter turn out rug

THANK YOU!

The support we have received since March has been overwhelming; your kind words have brought tears to our eyes and have given us the strength to carry on through these difficult times. We will continue (if permitted) with our Pony Visits during Lockdown #2 free of charge and do everything we can to bring a little happiness to the community until we can open our doors once again.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
