World Horse Welfare
Working with The British Horse Foundation
World Horse Welfare
We believe that every horse matters. Not just in moments of crisis or distress, but every day. It is this belief that drives our work to put the horse at the centre of how we think, care, act, ride and legislate for their welfare.
Our Vision
World Horse Welfare’s vision is a world where every horse is treated with respect, compassion and understanding.
Our Mission
Our mission is to work with horses, horse owners, communities, organisations and governments to improve welfare standards and stamp out suffering in the UK and worldwide.
Our Values
In everything we do, we aim to be:
Realistic in our approach, focusing on the practical to achieve what is possible now while mindful of the future
Compassionate in our attitudes, behaviour and decision-making
Forward-thinking in anticipating challenge and change, always seeking new ways of being more effective
How we Help
Our charity has been helping to improve the lives of horses for nearly 100 years through a combination of care, research, education and influence.
Care
We provide hands-on care to horses in need in Great Britain and internationally.
Research
We believe in using evidence to help guide our work, so we support and conduct research into the root causes of welfare problems.
Education
We support all horse owners with proven, practical advice based on solid research and real experience.
Influence
We work to help millions of horses by influencing policy and practice.
