Remembrance Day 2017

Once again Founder, Debi Heath French will be laying a wreath in Remembrance of all the animals lost in the World Wars, as well as their fellow human Service Men & Women.

A poem that we found that we thought expressed our brave horses written by Brenda Williams.

Fear ripped through the ranks.

Through men's limbs, into our flanks.

But, steady, courageous, facing battle again.

An awesome seilence enveloped them then.

We stamped our hooves. We felt it too.

We spoke as only horses do.

With clinking harness, snort and wicker.

With frightened eyes, and ears a-flciker.

Then "Forward! Forward!" Into battle.

To canon boom and machine gun rattle.

With thundering hooves and shouts and screams

Through blinding smoke to nightmare scens.

Lest we forget!
