In June, we’re holding our very first Rescued Horse Appreciation Month – and we want to hear from you! Throughout the month, we’ll be celebrating the stories of our horses, ponies, donkeys and mules as they enjoy a second chance in life thanks to our wonderful rehomers.
Our UK Support Officer Fran Windle says, “We always love hearing updates from our rehomers and are really enjoying reading the stories that are coming in already. If you’d like to tell us why your rehomed horse, pony, donkey or mule is wonderful – whether they’re providing invaluable companionship, are a much-loved children’s pony or you have high hopes for them becoming a ridden or driven horse – please do share your story. We’d love to hear the difference your World Horse Welfare rescue makes in your life.”
It’s really simple to take part in Rescued Horse Appreciation Month – just fill in our questionnaire, email stories@worldhorsewelfare.org or send us a letter to the following address to tell us all about your World Horse Welfare horse, pony, donkey or mule:
Rescued Horse Appreciation Month, World Horse Welfare, Anne Colvin House, Snetterton, Norwich, NR16 2LR
If you’re happy to share some photos of you with your rehomed horse, pony, donkey or mule, we’d love to see them. Images can be uploaded via the questionnaire or emailed to stories@worldhorsewelfare.org.
We look forward to receiving your touching, inspiring and humorous stories. Thank you to all our wonderful rehomers who give horses in need the loving homes they deserve.
