Last year was a challenge like none before. But while we were all navigating the changing world of a global pandemic, there were still horses and donkeys outside our Sanctuary walls that needed our help. And we were there for them.

Throughout the pandemic, Redwings has remained as committed as ever to helping horses and donkeys in need. And thanks to our supporters, we gave a new home, a fresh start – and a hopeful future – to nearly 180 horses and donkeys last year alone.

Of course, our work doesn’t end there. It costs us at least £3,000 to look after just one rescued resident in our Sanctuary for a year. For the many residents requiring special care, veterinary treatments or behaviour training, the costs are considerably higher. We have over 1,500 rescued horses and donkeys in the Sanctuary relying on us every day.

Can you help us to provide for our newest arrivals?

The past year has been a true test of our resilience as a charity. And through the challenges we continue to face, we are reminded of just how extraordinary our supporters are. You have stuck by us, responded to our requests for help and kept us feeding and caring for all those hungry mouths! Thank you.

With your help again this year, we can continue caring for residents like 2020 arrival Howell and we can help even more horses and donkeys that still need us. Redwings is 100% funded by public donations, which means that when times are tough, it is donations from our supporters that will help us to feed our herds, keep our Horse Hospital running and continue providing a place of sanctuary for every one of our residents.

Please help us this year to give all our residents a future worth living.

You can donate online below, or text REDWINGS 20 to 70085 to donate £20. All texts cost the donation amount plus a standard rate message.

Thank you.
