IN 2006 THE HOME OF REST FOR HORSES IS RENAMED THE HORSE TRUST TO REFLECT OUR GROWING MISSION
The Home of Rest for Horses was established to help the working horses of London. After 120 years our mission had expanded and the new name better reflects the breadth and depth of our activities to promote and enhance the welfare of the horse. This encompasses our dedication to improving the welfare of every horse, through scientific research aimed at improving horse care and welfare, and by providing training and advice to horse owners and equine professionals. Our Home of Rest for Horses in Buckinghamshire remains at the heart of our charity. It is here that The Horse Trust cares for around 100 retired and rescued horses. At our Home of Rest we have created a ‘centre of excellence in horse care’, where we can demonstrate and share best practice in horse care and welfare.
