Lluest Horse and Pony Trust And What they do.

Lluest Horse and Pony Trust is a small charity running a rescue/rehabilitation centre, with an average of 90 horses and ponies in approved loan homes, and a further 35 or more equines cared for at the trust. Nestling against the Black Mountain in the beautiful Carmarthenshire countryside. The Trust is entirely dependant upon voluntary donations and fund-raising activities. Anybody who gives to this charity will be assured that every penny possible is used on the purpose it is given- to care for the animals. It particularly covers the Swansea and Llanelli areas, some of the worst in the UK for stray horses and ponies. The aim is always to restore animals to full health and find them a loan home, if this is not possible they are assured a safe home for the rest of their natural lives.
I am undertaking a sponsored ride starting in Prestatyn on the 13th August and ending in Sennybridge Show on the the 3rd September. It will take three weeks and I will be covering 300+ Miles with Suzie my 22year old arabx mare rescued by Lluest in 2009

The Big hay tower.

            Another thrilling day at Lluest, was lovely to see the horses enjoying the sun. There was a new face there today a cute little colt foal unhandled but extremely curious. We took some time off filling hay nets to work with him gaining confidence and were soon giving his chin a good scratch a picture will be up shortly of him and does anyone have and name suggestions?
Once finished filling hay nets the challenge was fitting them on the trailer and here is the outcome.

And thank you so much to Olwen Rowlands of Maes Y Wern Farm, Llandyrnog for my first nights accommodation. There is a really good website http://www.walesonhorseback.co.uk/ this has a number of rides and accommodation on it and is so useful.
