The Epona Trust

My name is Peter, I am a cob Breton and I weigh around 1000kilos I live at a refuge in France and I love eating. This is my friend Domino, he doesn’t eat much, but he is very good at destroying fences and breaking into the food store. Along with our other 70 rescue equine companions, we are eating our refuge out of house and home. The owner of the refuge knows we understand what she says, and she has given us an ultimatum, diet or work. For us equine the idea of diet puts shivers down our withers and we really don’t want to go out to work. So I have taken it upon myself to contact you. With the help of Spenser, our computer savvy  rescue cats who hangs out on the computer all day  we hope to interest you in helping us pay a bill or two. Our vets bill (over 2000€) is still outstanding and we will need to keep our vet happy, so he will come to help us when we need him.

Can you help us fundraise Please? You can make a donation via pay pal on our donations page or transfer into our bank account (xontact us for details) forward this ask to all your animal loving friends, run a fundraising event for us or anything else you can think of that may help us

We love it here and we would like our refuge to continue helping other equine without the worry of financial hardship. You can visit the refuge at any time during summer, rent our holiday home. Or see us on the internet

We thank you for taking the time to read this and we hope you enjoy youe visit
