Hi all,
Is there anyone out there that would be willing to donate their old rasps, tools etc to the above UK based organisation ?
They are also looking for anyone that would be willing to donate some of their time to help teach owners in the Gambia how to look after their animals feet a lot better too and to help train some local people basic foot trimming.
These people are very poor and horses in very poor state through lack of education and knowlwedge but they are very willing to learn to make life better for their animals which in turn means they are more able to help themsleves to make a better life for their families.
If anyone also has any old and broken tack, old nickel bits etc please contact Heather - gambiahorseanddonkeytrust@hotmail.com - www.gambiahorseanddonkey.org.uk
They are also looking for electric fencing, saddle soap, neats foot oil etc to help keep all tack donated in good condition once in Gambia
All will be put to good use.
If anyone can help it would be very much appreciated.
