Our annual Open Day! 

Horse-lovers, families and animal welfare supporters, mark your calendars! On Saturday 9th August, the gates to HorseWorld will swing open for one unforgettable day, giving you a rare glimpse behind the scenes at one of the UK’s busiest horse welfare charities.

This isn’t just any open day, it’s HorseWorld’s biggest fundraising event of the year, and your visit will directly help to transform the lives of rescued horses, ponies and donkeys.

Come and meet the animals whose lives have been saved thanks to your support. Horses who are now thriving thanks to the care of HorseWorld’s expert team.

  • Live rescue demonstrations and welfare talks
  • Meet the horses and hear their powerful rescue stories
  • Walking tours, children’s activities and food stalls
  • All proceeds go directly to the rehabilitation of rescued equines

If you sponsor a horse, you will be able to meet them*. If you wish to take out a sponsorship on the day, there will be the opportunity to do so. There will be activities and educational stands for the children as well as merchandise stands and more.

Most of the site is suitable for wheelchairs and mobility scooters, there's just one nature walk out around the back of the farm that isn't suitable, the rest is relatively flat and concrete. No dogs except service dogs please as many of the rescued horses have come from traumatic backgrounds and haven't been introduced to dogs yet. 

Tickets are only available via this link or by contacting HorseWorld directly. Please be aware of scammers claiming to sell false tickets and only buy direct from us.

Why Your Visit Matters

Right now, the demand for rescue spaces is growing. Every week, HorseWorld receives urgent calls to help horses in desperate need. Many arrive in shocking condition, starved, neglected, and afraid. Pregnant mares and orphaned foals are heartbreakingly common.

We recently stepped in to help a vulnerable mare and her newborn foal found in distressing conditions on common land in Wales. With the help of a multi-agency operation, the pair were brought to safety and are now beginning their long road to recovery at HorseWorld.

It is always distressing to see any horse in need, but especially a mare with such a young foal. We’re committed to giving them a brighter future but we can only do it with your help.

Your ticket makes all the difference. Funds raised from the Open Day will support ongoing veterinary treatment, rehabilitation, and specialist care, giving more horses the second chance they deserve.

🌟 Be part of something extraordinary. Meet the horses. Hear their stories. Help us save more lives. 🌟
