News & Views Christmas Wishes

Merry Christmas!On behalf of Quest’s committee members I would like to wish Quest’s friends and supporters a safe and happy festive season. I would also like to extend our sincere appreciation to those people who have shown their support, encouragement, and generosity to our organisation during 2011. Your help has assisted Quest in improving the lives and futures of many horses and ponies this year, and because they can’t say thanks - we would like to say it for them.

Community commitment and support is undoubtedly the ‘fuel’ that is so imperative to our organisation’s capacity to, among the many and varied aspects of Quest’s work; operate the Quest Shelter for the rehabilitation of equines in need, to reach out and help struggling horse owners so that they can provide optimal care for their animals, and to continue to educate the wider community and create awareness regarding equine welfare issues.

Quest needs your continued help in the future. Let us all work together to ensure that a safe and comfortable life becomes a reality for more horses, ponies and donkeys in this country, and not just the lucky ones. This Christmas please consider making a donation to Quest so that we can turn more precious lives around in 2012.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Kindest regards
Beth Parker - Secretary
