Yesterday was a busy day, after not being able to do care homes visits because of a broken thumb (can’t drive horse box) - yesterday was hectic! A walk around the woods with Sprinkles,Sophie and Olivia, a lovely half hour pony session with a sweetheart young lady from RDA who won a Half hour Shetland session in their raffle, Lucine came full of energy to take Cupcake on a long walk around the woods and finally finishing with Hannah and Nutmeg as shown

Hello Cupcake and welcome to the hospice! Over the past couple of weeks Cupcake who is a has visited the hospice several times and has delighted us all. Such a beautiful sweet natured pony, brought to us by Pet a Pony who are a local not for profit organisation.

This, however was only made possible thanks to the generosity of Councillor Richard Butler who paid for the visits from the Nottinghamshire County Council Councillor Community Support Fund. Support such as this is so important as it ensures that our vital funds can be channelled towards our guests and their carers specific needs. We never have any spare pennies for moments such as this so we were so delighted that Councillor Butler was able to help.

Therapy Ponies offer a calm moment which helps our guests to relax, engage, enjoy a unique hands-on experience and just "be" for a moment.

Fun facts......Cupcake is 14 years old and has been sharing the love for the last 3 years. When she's not out and about she shares a field with her friends Sprinkles and Nutmeg! 🥰

Thank you to everyone involved in making this happen!
