This is an emergency appeal for funds to keep the Racehorse Sanctuary as a going concern. Help us to fulfil our promise to care for our horses for life - they deserve it.

The impact of the Covid-19 crisis has been that income from our cancelled summer events programme will simple not be there to keep us in business, able to care for our horses. Already the trustees have had to make some tough decisions to cut costs by closing our doors to new intake for the time being. Our priority is the welfare of our loyal staff and the horses currently in our care.

Government has enough on its hands to save the health service and many human lives, and to save as much of our economy as possible. Racing faces a herculean task to save so many livelihoods and secure the welfare of horses in training. We can only rely on concerned individuals like yourselves. We are so sorry to come back to you again, but please donate generously.

Whatever you feel you can afford as a one-off Gift Aided on-line donation will be most welcome. What would help us most is a monthly donation, so that we have regular income we know we can rely on. £20 per month will qualify you to sponsor a horse. For £10 per month, you will qualify as a member of our Supporters Club. For £3 per month, you will qualify as a Friend of the Sanctuary. If you want to donate by TEXT, please follow the instructions on our website using this link: http://www.racehorsesanctuary.org/Donate/by-Phone.asp.

Thank you so much. Please stay safe and well.
