IHWT funds

MEMBERS of Dublin’s Brooke Lodge Riding Club held a pub quiz, raising €500 for the Irish Horse Welfare Trust. Expressing thanks to Brooke Lodge RC, IHWT spokesperson Sharon Power said: “They have been doing this for the past few years for us and we appreciate it hugely. We have 35 equines in care at our equine welfare centre including 12 ex-racehorses and have over 300 equines out in homes all over Ireland. Since January this year, the IHWT has taken in six welfare cases including two thoroughbreds, four yearlings and a very badly injured pony, heavily in foal.”
