Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am running for a very small charity - one that really needs your help to continue working in the community where it is based.

On the surface you might think that Shy Lowen only rescues horses and ponies, but it doesn't end there.  They provide a safe home, training and lots of love for these sometimes mistreated animals.  BUT they also work with humans who also find themselves vulnerable or suffering in some way, and the horses and ponies help with that. 

They are in a deprived area of the city, meaning that local kids can come along and volunteer and learn to look after animals that they probably wouldn't have the opportunity to otherwise.  They provide riding lessons (when the pesky weather allows!) for a very reasonable price meaning again that it is available to kids who just would not normally get those opportunities.

In a mad world, Shy Lowen is a peaceful haven for horses, ponies and humans.  Go on, donate.  You know you want to!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

About the charity

It provides safe haven for unwanted, misused and neglected equines retraining using holistic intelligent horsemanship methods. It provides education about the welfare of animals in general and equines in particular. It rehomes the animals on a permanent loan basis ensuring that they are safe for life.
