🌸 Meet our Moorland, Tulip 🌸

This beautiful 4-year-old mare is full of potential and energy, and she thrives on mental stimulation and activity. Tulip is a smart, curious young lady who will benefit greatly from an experienced handler who has the time and patience to offer her consistent handling and guidance.

Tulip enjoys being out in the field as much as possible, soaking up the fresh air, and having plenty of space to roam. However, she is also happy to be part stabled, as long as she has her friends nearby.

She can get a little anxious if a companion is taken away, so having her buddies around is key to her feeling settled and secure.

If you’re someone who can offer Tulip the attention and care she needs, she could be a wonderful companion with the right support and training.

We know this sweet mare will shine in the right hands! 💖

A sweet-natured mare looking for a loving home🐴💛

Fidget is a 14-year-old Moorland mare with a gentle and affectionate nature. She enjoys human interaction and is great with the farrier and vet. While she may feel a little unsettled at first in a new environment, with patience and reassurance, she will soon find her routine and feel at home.

Once settled, Fidget is happy in her stable and can be left on her own when needed. She would thrive in a calm and caring home where she can continue to build confidence.

Could you offer Fidget the loving home she deserves? 🏡

🌟 What is Payroll Giving and why should you join in this Payroll Giving Month? 🌟

Payroll Giving (also known as Give as You Earn) is one of the easiest and most tax-efficient ways to support your favourite charities. 💸✨ It allows you to donate directly from your salary before tax is deducted, meaning you’ll pay less tax while giving more to the causes you care about. ❤️

For example, if you donate £10 through Payroll Giving and are a basic-rate taxpayer (20% tax), only £8 will come out of your pay, but the charity will still receive the full £10. For higher-rate taxpayers, it’s even more efficient, as larger donations cost less than they would after-tax.

During Payroll Giving Month this February, charities, companies, and payroll giving agencies are raising awareness of this incredible way to make a difference. By joining, you can make a bigger impact on the causes you love, and the charities benefit without needing to claim Gift Aid. 🌱

Who will steal your heart this Valentine’s Day? ❤️🐴❤️

All of our rescued horses and ponies love fruit and veg as enrichment, but some don’t have such a sweet tooth.

We took a pot of strawberry ‘hearts’ to Coombe Park this week to see who is feeling the passion… 🍓❤️😍
