In January 2008, RSPCA Inspectors rescued 111 horses, ponies and donkeys, that were found in appalling conditions on a Buckinghamshire farm.

The cost to the RSPCA of caring for the animals involved has now reached over £850,000. We desperately need your help to continue to care for these animals and others like them.

Please send your gift today, to help us continue to give them the best care they deserve.

“The operation to remove the animals to safety over a year ago was a difficult but successful joint effort between many animal welfare agencies and the police,” said inspector Hampton. “The RSPCA would like to thank them all - and in particular
the Horse Trust, Redwings, and World Horse Welfare - for helping us provide ongoing care for the huge number of deprived horses, ponies and donkeys removed from Spindle Farm in January 2008.”
