During this time of COVID -19 Our horses are completely oblivious to what is happening in the world at this current time, they are now all 'holidaying' some have had their hair done and its a bit like a horse spa eating grass and hay until their hearts content.

​

Some of our customers we've spoken to in the past few days have been telling us how they would love to help the stables and the horses in this uncertain time, to contribute towards field rent, hay, feed, water, vet visits and medication etc.

​

This is an extremely kind gesture and we would be very grateful for any donations to help us at this time when we have no income from lessons, the 40 plus horses and ponies will all need feeding etc.

 

We (including the horses) can't wait to welcome you all to Nelson Park Riding Centre, we hope you all stay healthy, well and safe
