Tettenhall Horse Sanctuary
Our Mission
"To give a home and retirement to Horses and Ponies "
The Tettenhall Horse Sanctuary originated in
1976, established as a charity in 1978 it has been the leading light for
most of the other emerging sanctuaries. In 35 years we are still the
only reliable 24 hour service to stray and abandoned horses in the Black
Country. With a dozen horses saved from slaughter, a
dozen wayward youths take off the streets to help field management and a
dozen honorable people pledged to raise the necessary funds. In the year
2001 ten of those original horses are still alive and enjoying pasture
pleasure, two original waywards have matured and stayed and two of the
original fundraisers are pledged here for life.
Along the way thousands
of horses have benefited together with thousands of youths, disabled
people, people with slow ability and no hope of a job have found
employment. Sadly the fund raising skills have always been neglected in
huge demand for hands on help that has been called on by the demands of
this now internationally known charity.
The dedication, knowledge and skill to care for elderly discarded horses
and slow people are unsurpassed. We hope this Internet site will find
willing fundraisers to ease the modern day bills. Have a browse through
the site and send a small donation if you can.
Thank you
