Racehorse Rescue Centre

Racehorse Rescue Centre We create innovative programmes that other charities follow, using rescued racehorses to transform lives.

Support our work today – every horse and person we help starts with you! The Racehorse Rescue Centre (RRC) is a registered charity No. 1150864 based in Carlisle, serving the whole UK. It is an Approved Rescue and Re-training Centre by the RoR. By rescuing ex racehorses we give them a secure safe environment and the opportunity to move onto new careers once they have finished racin

g. We are not just a Rescue Centre
We provide free programmes to disadvantaged groups throughout the UK to help them develop their skills in the community such as injured soldiers, probation services, disabled, employment services, colleges and therapy for people suffering from trauma or depression. We are 100% volunteer run so any help goes direct to the horses and not on salaries. The Racehorse Rescue Centre works with the community through its highly motivated volunteer team. Horses that come to the Centre are given time to go back to their roots and allowed to socialise with the other horses to build up development and confidence. We retrain ex racehorses to their best ability and find new caring homes that will secure their future. Other horses that work well with our programmes will stay at the Centre to help educate the community in the importance of how equine therapy can help disadvantaged groups. We have other older horses that are harder to re-home and these will stay with us if no homes can be found. The RRC do not sell horses on and keeps ownership for the rest of their lives. The Racehorse Rescue Centre relies on donations from the caring public, companies and its trustees. Any funding is spent directly on the horses and to help secure their future. The trustees have been rescuing ex racehorses for the past 25 years and started the charity in 2010 to help create awareness of the problem and to get the community more involved. We believe it has a bright future ahead thanks to the hard work the volunteers put in and with the support of the community throughout the world we hope to continue to grow.

During my week long Work Experience placement at the Racehorse Rescue Centre, I have learnt so much about these horses, from daily chores such as mucking out and grooming the horses, (specifically Rammy) to witnessing ‘join up’ with Prince and have enjoyed every day more than the last. I especially enjoyed being able to clean out the hooves of some of the horses myself, something I thought only farriers were allowed to do.

Living a 3 hour drive away from the Centre ment I wouldn’t have been able to experience this, if it wasn’t for the free accommodation on site, which was amazing!

Finally, I’d like to thank everyone here for being so supportive during my stay, especially Mark and Nigel for helping with day to day instruction.

🐴 Help Save John – A 6-Year-Old Racehorse in Need with tendon injuries 🐴

Here you can see him with one of our volunteers giving him some gentle exercise to help with the tendon stiffness in his front legs, as he is on box rest.

Every day of his recovery costs money – hay, bedding, vet care, ultrasounds, and specialist rehabilitation all add up. But with your support, we can give John the time and love he needs to heal.

Join us in our journey and keep up to date on his progress by supporting John today.
💰 You can help today for just £10 a month – that’s less than the price of a cup of coffee each week!
Please join our lottery, you’ll be part of John’s journey and help many more retired racehorses like him. You can also win up to £25,000 in our monthly draws with weekly prizes and a free Gourmet Membership giving you 25%-50% off food and drink.

👉 Join the lottery here and be part of his recovery:
