Let’s Pound Grass Sickness!
We have a new fundraising campaign! Like many charities COVID-19 has hit our fundraising activities hard, with all shows and events cancelled for the time being. So for a bit of fun our supporters have suggested we set up a Facebook group for some online FUNdraising activities.

To join in these activities please head over to the group at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/EquineGrassSicknessFundraising/
Alternatively please contribute directly to our Covid Campaign https://www.justgiving.com/campaign/PoundGrassSickness
