Meet some fantastic characters from the charity’s 1,500 rescued horses, ponies and donkeys and the amazing team who care for them every day. Go behind the scenes at Redwings sites across the UK, from the Reception Centre where they welcome new arrivals to the Horse Hospital where the vets and nurses help them back on their hooves, and from the carers and maintenance teams who look after their daily care, to the Rehoming team who find them loving new homes.
