Story

I am thrilled to share that I have been selected to participate in a charity race to raise funds for the British Horse Society (BHS) on the 7th of November. This cause is particularly close to my heart as the BHS plays a crucial role in promoting the prevention of cruelty, neglect, and harm to horses, and in providing sanctuary to those in need of care. The Society responds to over 6,000 welfare cases each year, making a significant impact on the lives of many horses.

Additionally, the BHS runs the 'Changing Lives through Horses Programme,' which aims to improve the lives of children and young adults who need additional support or are disengaged or disadvantaged. This program is instrumental in offering these young individuals a chance to develop skills, build confidence, and find a positive direction in life through their interactions with horses.

To support this worthy cause, I have set a fundraising goal of £2500. I would be immensely grateful for your support in helping me reach this target. Every donation, no matter how small, will contribute to the amazing work the BHS does and make a significant difference.

Thank you so much for your generosity and support.
