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

Day 7 - Lake Vyrnwy to Llanerfyl

Last day of the week - Beth and Suzie will have a well earned rest this weekend, well almost Beth will be taking her Driving Theory Test in Shrewsbury - no pressure then!

Last night Bethan stayed in her tent at Fronheulog Caravan Park near Lake Vyrnwy.  I went up and took her out for supper as there are no shops on site and seemed very happy with the way the ride was going.  Suzie looked really well and happy in a field with loads of grass.

The trip to Ty Isaf was mainly uneventful but took in some of the Dyfnant Forest Rainbow Trails  a great project run in conjunction with the Forestry Commission to make the area accessible for horses, both ridden and driven.  With the increasing threat of wind turbines this project is being relaunched so if you are in the area check them out.
