Who are we?

We are based near Antrim and we are committed to helping all kinds of animals - mainly horses and ponies, but also dogs, cats, rabbits and chickens. Since we were granted charitable status in 1996 we have worked tirelessly to promote animal welfare and education and we are committed to promoting awareness and knowledge of animal welfare issues throughout the province.
