THE OBJECT OF THE CIO IS, FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE PUBLIC, TO RELIEVE THE SUFFERING OF, PRIMARILY BUT NOT EXCLUSIVELY, EQUINES IN ENGLAND IN NEED OF CARE AND ATTENTION AND, IN PARTICULAR, TO PROVIDE AND MAINTAIN RESCUE HOMES OR OTHER FACILITIES FOR THE RECEPTION, CARE AND TREATMENT OF SUCH ANIMALS
Charity status was gained in January 2024
The charity comprised of numerous ponies some of which could be rehabilitated and rehomed, the others would remain under the care of the sanctuary as were old, ill, Our first rescue as a registered charity comprised of an elderly mare who had been neglected to the point of starvation. This was a local rescue which culminated in her spending almost 12 months almost to the day at the sanctuary enjoying being loved and fed before one day finding her peacefully passed away in her stable.
2 ponies were euthanised due to 1 acute case of colic and another with a longstanding condition where he was assessed and the decision was made that his suffering had to stop.
Fundraising
Various fundraisers were held throughout the year. We worked in partnership with Foxfield Railway where we took the animals for the benefit of the public to further our work.

We did a large fundraiser at Trentham Gardens emergency services day where we took a variety of animals including ponies, sheep and chickens. The feedback we had from there was outstanding with a return invitation for this year.
