Party time for Dolly on June 14th

Come along on Sunday June 14th and help us celebrate the birthday of our very special adoption pony Dolly!

You do not have to adopt Dolly to come along to her birthday party, everyone is welcome and entry is free of charge. There will be activities going on throughout the day and at 1pm it will be time for Dolly's special birthday parade, complete with yummy horsey birthday cake and lots of singing too! The centre is open every day from 10am and we hope to see you soon.

For details of how to adopt Dolly or one of her lovely friends for as little as £12.50 a year, follow this link to the Adopting pages of this site >>>>>.

 

Ada Cole Rescue Centre, Essex

See Welfare in Action!

In October 2005 Redwings merged with the Ada Cole Memorial Stables in Essex, a rescue centre established in memory of an amazing lady who campaigned for animal welfare. You can meet more than 50 rescued horses, ponies, donkeys and mules at the site - some are permanent residents while others are looking for loving homes through the charity’s Guardianship Scheme.

The Ada Cole centre is also the permanent home of nine gorgeous adoption equines Boo, Choccy, Dolly, Finnegan, Harry, Katy, Louie, Misfit and Rhadlon. They can’t wait to meet you!

What to do

Quality Assured Visitor Attraction

At our Ada Cole centre there are walking tours and horse care demos as well as a gift shop and information centre on site where you can adopt a pony, buy gifts or find out more about the horsey residents and the charity's welfare work.

We also serve light refreshments including hot drinks and delicious cakes!
