Mare and Foal Sanctuary's video: Can you help us to provide a safe home for foals horses and ponies who have nowhere else to turn

It is six-month-old foal Solar’s first Christmas in our care. We are thankful that we can provide him with a lifelong, loving home. His dam, Sandy, was heavily pregnant with nowhere else to turn. If we hadn’t been able to step in and help, then Sandy may not have been able to foal in a safe environment. Their futures were uncertain.    Beautiful moorland mare, Sandy, was rescued when her owners lost their grazing at short notice. Sandy was heavily pregnant, so an emergency intervention took place to bring her to our veterinary and welfare centre, where the team specialise in the care of mares in foal and orphaned foals. Her foal, Solar, was born two weeks after she arrived at the Sanctuary. That is why we are here. A donation of just £10 this Christmas could help us provide a safe home for foals, horses and ponies who have nowhere else to turn.
