Story
To all our valued customers and friends we need your help once again.
Sadly here at Hole Farm, our whole existence depends on our riding school. We have no other form of income i.e. liveries, shows etc. However it was down to the support we had from everyone, that we pulled through the first pandemic and all of our horses and ponies are still here.
The ponies/horses help and support so many people from every background in this community of Birmingham and offer the opportunity to visit Woodgate Valley Country Park and at a reasonable cost to access the "magic of horses", either through a horse back trek through the 450 acre park or learn to ride in our lovely indoor and outdoor schools.
Since we have had to go into another total lockdown for the unforeseeable future and there is no income to pay for the upkeep of our equine friends, the difference now is that we are entering the worst part of the winter months and the most expensive. I want to make sure that they are just as well cared for now and when we open again.
With no riding school income, we are asking for donations however great or small to keep our ponies/horses healthy and safe in their home for when the centre re-opens.
If you don’t wish to contribute, could you please help by sharing this page?
Take care and stay safe, remember hands-face-space!
Our sincerest thanks for all your support.
Carol and staff x
