Horse Rescue Australia Inc. is a non-profit organisation and registered charity devoted to the care and rehabilitation of horses that have suffered abuse, abandonment or neglect. The organisation is run by a small, dedicated volunteer committee, one of whom is resident manager. Horse Rescue Australia receives no government assistance at all which means running of the sanctuary and ensuring the good health and wellbeing of the horses is funded solely through generous donations, sponsorships, memberships and fundraising events
NEWS FROM THE horse rescue HERD
Declutter your stables
If you have excess horse gear, rugs, saddles, saddle cloths, bridles, halters, lead ropes, etc (in good condition) we would be very grateful to receive them.
This gear will be used for our horses or if the herd is unable to use it, we hold a fundraising gear sale day and the sales go towards the care, health and well-being of the herd. This is usually held in May and we’ll notify everyone of the date via our socials and newsletter.
Contact us to arrange a drop off.
Horse Rescue Australia Open Day
Join us on Saturday 8 August, 10.00am–2.00pm for a fun-filled family day at Horse Rescue Australia! Meet our beautiful rescue horses, enjoy face painting, browse market stalls, watch a fascinating AHS Horsemanship demonstration, and relax in the sunshine with great food and a welcoming community atmosphere.
It’s the perfect day out for all ages while supporting rescued horses and learning about the work we do. Entry is free and everyone is welcome. Please note: dogs are not permitted on the property to ensure the safety and wellbeing of the horses.
Volunteer with us
We love hosting volunteer days at our North Richmond property. We try to hold them every second month depending on the weather.
‘Vollie Day’ starts with a property tour to meet the horses and an update on what’s been happening at the sanctuary. For those looking to be a bit more hands on, there are odd jobs to be done like clearing weeds in the paddocks, poo pickup, fixing fences or cutting back brush. Grooming is a highlight and the horses love the attention. Keep an eye on our socials or sign up for our newsletter for updates.
With respect for Aboriginal cultural protocol and out of recognition that our property occupies their traditional lands, Horse Rescue Australia acknowledges the Darug and Darkinjung people and thanks them for their support of our work in their lands
