Organisation Information

The Hugs Foundation is a registered charity (1175633) and we rescue, rehabilitate and rehome unwanted and neglected horses and ponies. Our facilities and rescue animals allow us to create unique well-being interventions for children, young people, adults and the elderly, using a diverse range of therapeutic activities in a natural farm environment to help both animals and humans in need. In addition, we visit care homes, schools and other places within the community to support mental well-being outside of the farm facilities and help educate on animal welfare.
