About us
Founded in 1968 by Mr Peter Hunt, Bransby Horses is one of the UK's largest equine welfare and rescue charities, dedicated to improving the lives of horses, ponies, donkeys and mules. Bransby Horses has nearly 1,000 equines in our care across two sites in Lincolnshire and foster homes around the country, many of whom come from situations of neglect and mistreatment. Our site in the Lincolnshire hamlet of Bransby is open to the public for free all year round and gives visitors a chance to see the amazing work our teams do first hand. We rely solely on support from the general public to continue our mission to improve the lives of equines through our key charity principles; rescue, rehabilitation, rehoming, education and providing specialist sanctuary care. Thanks to continued public support and people remembering us in their Will, we can continue our vital work and take on more equines in need.

Say hello to Della 👋 📏 Height: 16.1 hh 📆 Age: 8 years old ♀️ Mare 🐴 Companion Della is a stunning 16.1hh, bay, thoroughbred mare looking for a loving home as a non-ridden companion. From the moment she arrived, Della has captured hearts with her friendly and affectionate nature. 💖 This sweet girl loves nothing more than trotting up to greet you in the field, ears pricked and ready to spend time with you. Her happy place? Relaxing in her stable with a hay net and enjoying a good groom – she lives for being the centre of attention! 🏠 What Della Needs in a Home: ✨ An experienced handler with larger horses, as she’s forward-going on the lead but never silly or nasty. ✨ A companion who respects her space but enjoys a bit of mutual grooming and playful runs. ✨ A smaller herd or a single equine buddy would suit her best. Della is eager, kind, and ready to bring joy and companionship to her perfect home. Could that be with you? 👉 Learn more about Della and how to apply to rehome her here: https://lnkd.in/epbP6X4A #RehomeDella #BransbyHorses #EquineCompanion #ForeverHome
