Equine Rescue Rehabilitation Therapy Education

We rescue, rehabilitate, rehome or retire animals large and small

We have been involved with rescue work, education and therapy with animals for several years but Hoofprints Miniature Haven started July 2018 to allow people to see we were a transparent charity. It took an extended period of time to register as a charity due to involving children, vulnerable adults and animals all requiring high levels of commitment, security and expertise.

• Registered with Fundraising Regulator

• Social Farms & gardens Voting Member

We have survived testing times over the last few years… Brexit, Drought raised price of bedding and forage and feed. Flooding raised costs of bedding forage and feed. Covid completely shut to all public attendance for sessions and fundraising. Financial Crisis is bringing in lots of requests for help but an animal focused business can’t just shut its doors and do nothing. Animals still need to be cared for 24/7 and with covid affecting people’s life, finances, health we have had a large influx of requests from people unable to care for their animals due to financial and/or health issues which causes families a lot of stress and sadness.

But knowing we could take in their much loved animals has helped lots of families to cope with having to sign over their family pets.

We spend hours applying for grants and are extremely grateful to grant givers for funds.

We are also extremely grateful; for our supporters for their donations no matter how small.

 to donate relatively small amounts; and every penny helps. You could also take part in fund-raising events like Movember or Decembeard, which aim to raise awareness of issues affecting men, such as prostate, testicular and bowel cancer, at specific times of year. The Directory of Social Change has a useful list at dsc.org.uk .

11. SPREAD THE WORD

Show your support for your chosen charity by sharing details of their fundraising events on your own personal and business social media pages.

12. CHARITY PARTNERSHIPS

Encourage your employer to develop a charity partnership for 2023, and to do so every year. The organisation you select and its mission should ideally align with the business’s own values. (There can be a great deal of positive public relations gained from such a collaboration, and awareness for the company you represent.)

13. CHARITY DAYS

Support charity days, such as telethons or national events - Cancer Research UK’s Race for Life, Macmillan Cancer Support’s World’s Biggest Coffee Morning or Walk the Walk’s Moonwalk are popular examples.

14. FOOD BANKS

Donate to food banks – many food shops have their own boxes and baskets in store, so you can simply buy duplicates of the most useful items, such as store cupboard essentials.

15. CHARITY CASHBACK SCHEMES

Sign up to one of the shopping sites that allows customers to give, without paying any extra for the item, to a chosen charity. This is seen as a thank you from the store you have shopped at, for your custom – they then pay a commission to the charity. Give As You Live Online, Amazon Smile and easyfundraising.org.uk are three such examples.

16. MONETARY DONATIONS

Obviously an easy way to support a charity is via giving them money. One-off monetary gifts, regular direct debits or legacy gifting are three important ways to help keep charities afloat, in these trying times.

17. CHARITY CHRISTMAS CARDS

Choose charity greetings cards and other gifts, such as calendars and diaries, to support a needy cause.

18. ADDITIONAL DONATIONS

If you have HMRC-qualifying shares, consider putting these to good use by gifting them to charity. CAF has information at cafonline.org, as does the HMRC website, gov.uk/donating-to-charity .
