The Mare and Foal Sanctuary rescues abandoned, neglected, or abused horses and ponies, offering them sanctuary for life. In each of our five peaceful sanctuaries in Devon, we unlock a world of natural, wild beauty where horses, ponies, and people who were struggling can enjoy life again.
Our compassionate and knowledgeable team cares for nearly 200 horses and ponies at our sanctuaries. Additionally, over 400 horses and ponies are rehomed and offered sanctuary at home by our dedicated carers. Sanctuary care is supported by a welfare team assisting owners struggling with the enormous commitment of horse ownership.
Operating across four sites in Devon, we are proud to offer:
· An Equine Assisted Services program to our local community in Devon. This program provides a range of activities for vulnerable children, young people, and adults involving our rescued horses and ponies - many of whom have also endured adverse life experiences.
· A small retail network helps support our fundraising and brand awareness, and we have ambitious plans to build on our open days and transform our Coombe Park sanctuary into a permanent visitor centre.
