EMW-UK's HEREFORDSHIRE Sanctuary is a gentle place for equines in need of sanctuary. It is set in beautiful countryside and is a restful, healing place. Currently we have 13 residents with many more out on long term loan in approved homes. EMW- UK is dedicated to ending the abuses and suffering of equines in markets and auctions. Our team of field workers attend as many horse Auction sales as possible to monitor the conditions in which the horses and ponies are presented for sale and the manner in which the sale is conducted, they report any actions that do not comply with the Law relating to Auction sales to the relevant authorities. EMW-UK actively campaigns against indiscriminate breeding of valueless foals whose average life span is a scant and miserable 6 months. EMW-UK is an independent equine welfare organisation and will investigate any incidents of cruelty, neglect and abuse inflicted on any equine. EMW-UK aim to re-home as many inmates as possible, subject to home checks and suitability. this charity does not allow breeding from any of the horses or ponies that come into our care. We have our own team of volunteers and specialists who give their time and expertise to this charity for free and we are supported by well respected companies including Natural Animal Feeds, The Pure Feed Company and Countrywide Stores.
EQUINE MARKET WATCH UK tand by our motto of "WE will NOT look away" We were presented with the best horse rescue award of 2012 at the Wetnose Awards in London.
