@HespeChris34466 @Jura_Harris Thank you so much x

[Redwings @RedwingsHS]

It is with profound sadness that we announce the closure of two of our visitor centres, Redwings Mountains in Forfar, Angus, and Redwings Oxhill in Warwickshire, following a period of staff consultation. Both centres are closed with immediate effect.

🐴I thank the @RedwingsHS Horse Sanctuary, with their #AdaCole Stables in #EppingForest, for raising the Petition for this vital Debate in the Commons.
🎆 Poorly managed fireworks can cause real fear, injury & trauma for animals, both large & small, and distress for many people.

[Redwings @RedwingsHS]

@FlavellG @janetcwebsterb1 Yes, all the horses and donkeys would be relocated to our other sites x

[Redwings @RedwingsHS]

@FlavellG @janetcwebsterb1 Any potential movements would take place once the process is concluded. All equines will be looked after and moved to the best site possible for them based on their healthcare needs and friendships. x

[Redwings @RedwingsHS]

@janetcwebsterb1 At present the site is under consultation for potential closure, not actually closing. More information is available on our website - https://t.co/av3qj5PL09

As a result, not all sanctuaries are equal and too often we have been involved in cases of severe neglect and suffering in places called ‘sanctuaries’. This has often led to Redwings offering spaces for horses like Ringo, who needed to be rescued for a second time. ❤️

Redwings welcomes the Government’s long-awaited new Animal Welfare Strategy. 🐴

In particular, we are pleased to see further consideration being given to the licensing of animal rescue and rehoming centres. #animalwelfarereform #animalwelfare

[Redwings @RedwingsHS]

Redwings knows all too well how much knowledge, time, effort and commitment is needed to rescue and care for animals in need.

At present, anyone can set and run a ‘sanctuary’ without checks or even being required to register their existence.
