Redwings launches new adoption club!We are delighted to announce some exciting changes to our adoption schemeThe Redwings adoption scheme has always been a fantastic way to help the Sanctuary’s 1100 rescued horses, ponies, donkeys and mules. Now anyone joining our Adoption Club will get a brand new 'Nosebag' adoption pack, and there is even the option of an online version too. You can choose from more than 20 special horses, ponies, donkeys and mules – ranging from tiny cheeky Miniature Shetland Wensley to pretty donkey Felicity to towering 18.1hh Shire Victor – and in return you will get a new-look Nosebag Gift Pack which includes an adoption certificate to show off, a letter from your new pal, an A5 photo for the mantelpiece or bedroom and details of when and how to visit them! You will also receive a special update on your new friend’s birthday (with an invite to their party of course) plus news and updates from us throughout the year.
But brand new this year is also the option of having everything electronically online – great for horse lovers who enjoy using the Internet but also a good choice if you want to help the environment plus increase the amount of money that goes straight to our horses and ponies. If you choose the online option, you will get your certificate, and photos online and will also be able to read your adopted equine’s regular blog, download extra photos and even watch videos! You will also be able to access an exclusive ‘online paddock’ as much as you wish, to enjoy a virtual pat and catch up! If you are an existing adopter, you will have the chance to change to online at renewal, if you so wish. >>>> Click here for a sneak preview of the Online adoption The cost for either option is just £12.50 a year, amounting to little over £1 a month. You can choose a type of horse or pony that is special to you, or may be moved by a particular pony’s story. Many have been rescued from terrible circumstances such as friendly Welsh pony Rhadlon who was locked in a stable for four years or Oliver Twist, left unwanted at a horse sale because of his twisted muzzle. There are some lovely donkeys to choose from too, including gentle Louie who was rescued from neglect and cheeky Denise who was hand reared by the Redwings vet team and thinks she’s a human!
Adoptions are a brilliant way for people to help us, explains Chief Executive Lynn Cutress: “Whether you don’t have the space or time for a pony of your own, or you just like to support the work of Redwings, adoptions are really popular and fun. Often people buy adoptions as gifts for birthdays or Christmas, which is a lovely idea especially for children. We don’t mind if people adopt by post or adopt online, the choice is theirs, but we hope we’ve now made it even easier for people to help us help horses. We think the online blogs and extra fun in the ‘online paddock’ will make adoptions good fun in particular for children, and parents will know that our website is an informative, fun and safe place to be.” To adopt one of our lovely residents, follow this link to our adoptions pages >>>>>>>> or telephone our Adoptions team on 01508 481010.
