Welcome
Our Purpose Is To:
-
Assist people who can no longer care for their horses for a variety of reasons and find them new homes.
-
Work with horses that have physical, mental or behavioural difficulties to rehabilitate them and in many cases work towards a completely different working life.
-
Retrain ex-racehorses to have a differing career post racing.
-
Work with other welfare centres to assist in accepting welfare cases as required.
-
Remain in contact to oversee every horse we rehome for life.

Who We Are
Tracy Cooper, Chair of Trustees founded the Charity with 2 others, after the equine training company she owned had been given a number of horses who needed rehabilitation ; both physically and mentally. The number of horses they were given became significant and necessitated more funding than they could offer.
HRH was born and since then has built a great reputation for a sympathetic and kind approach allowing horses firstly to adjust and develop in their own time. When a horse is ready to move on from the Centre it is carefully matched to a new home to ensure a happy outcome for horse and adopter.

Our Mission Statement

To give horses & ponies in the UK
the correct loving and secure
home which they deserve.
Objectives:
-
To help individuals who for one reason or another can no longer look after their horses & ponies.
-
To find long-term, suitable homes for the horses, following assessment, retraining and rehabilitation as required.
-
To maintain adequate finances to ensure the welfare of the horses in our care.

Tracy competed in eventing, dressage and show jumping, and has always had a keen interest in horses, and gained British Horse Society qualifications to further her knowledge and enable her to teach.
Having recognised a gap in the provision of training in the local area she set about providing education in horse care, management and riding. Tracy met her colleague, Lin, who had extensive experience in work-based training, and in 2011 they formed their own training organisation as a limited company.

Looking after horses has been in my family for generations.
When we purchased the farm, our mission was to create equestrian facilities and make a holiday home for horses.
I am a quarry manager by day but an out of hours horse carer by night.
Living on the site enables me to offer security and care for the horses and support for the yard staff.
