On Saturday,
my partner and I were delighted to open our home to help raise funds for the Shetland Pony Welfare Trust.
It is a fantastic local charity based in Landbeach on Waterbeach Road. They are doing great work to take in ponies that have either experienced mistreatment or that their owners can no longer afford to keep. The SPWT is a growing charity that has taken on more ponies in recent times. They now care for a total of thirty five ponies. This means that running costs have now increased to £40,000 per year.
As we are now coming into the winter, this means that the ponies switch from grass to feed. From the event we raised enough money to buy two weeks worth of feed.
