Volunteer with us!

If you are over 18, volunteering is a great way to support us here at Redwings!

You can directly impact the care of our rescued residents by helping us to improve the experience for our visitors and supporters at our centres.

By regularly giving a few hours of your time you could meet new friends, learn new skills, build self-confidence or maybe even improve your own wellbeing; we highly recommend a walk around the paddocks or a quick “chat” with your favourite rescue at the paddock fence before or after your shift!
Please note: sadly we are currently unable to offer voluntary roles working with the equines.

Redwings volunteers:

  • make a difference to the lives of our horses, ponies, donkeys and mules.

  • meet new people in a great working environment.

  • can be flexible about their working hours.

  • can choose to support us across different roles as they develop.

  • are given a named mentor for support.

“The best thing about volunteering is that I really enjoy meeting people and the satisfaction of getting jobs done! The team are friendly and welcoming, and the process to join as a volunteer was easy and helpful with in-person and paper applications.”

“I enjoy volunteering at Anna Sewell House because I am passionate about horses and the work Redwings does, and would like to give my time to the charity. It also allows me to make friends with people I wouldn’t have met otherwise“

Corporate Volunteering

We are truly grateful for the incredible offers of time and support from companies like yours and are thrilled to see your interest in supporting Redwings. Your enthusiasm for helping us care for our rescued horses, ponies and donkeys means the world to us. We love working with corporate partners who share our mission, and we value the impact they can have on our residents.
At Redwings, we believe in creating meaningful, long-term partnerships that make a real difference in the equine industry. That’s why we prioritise our corporate partners when it comes to volunteering opportunities. This ensures that our limited resources are dedicated to providing the best possible experience for those who have made a long-term commitment to our mission. From March to October, we focus on priority volunteering projects that are designed to leave a lasting impact on our residents and your team.
Due to the high demand for these opportunities, we’re unable to accommodate one-off volunteer days at this time. However, we would love to explore partnerships with companies where our missions align. Whether it’s through tailored corporate partnerships, joint initiatives, or donations, we’re excited to discuss how we can work together to support equine welfare.
If this sounds like something your team would value, and you’re interested in exploring a partnership with Redwings, we would love to hear from you! Please reach out via email, or on the form below, and we can discuss how we can work together to create opportunities that benefit both our residents and your company’s long-term goals.
