🚨 Urgent Appeal from Clwyd Special Riding Centre 🚨
At Clwyd Special Riding Centre we positively change the lives of all those who cross our threshold and interact with our amazing horses.
Despite tireless efforts by our wonderful team, we very sadly find ourselves having to launch this emergency fundraising campaign. Today we share with you a message that is both honest and URGENT.
Please help us to continue impacting lives in this truly special way by donating today and sharing our plea as far and wide as possible. Put simply, we are inviting you to be part of securing our future.
Over the years, we have all witnessed this magical place's incredible impact: lives changed, confidence built, healing begun — all under the banner of what we proudly stand for as a charity.
The Centre is now at a critical crossroads.
If we can secure real, immediate donations then we can develop and progress our plan for the future. A robust, responsible plan to stabilise, grow and thrive.
We understand that this call for action may feel sudden. The truth is, we have worked tirelessly behind the scenes. We have tried every option. We have been hopeful. We have been creative. We have been determined. And even in the face of increasing challenges, we have wanted — above all — to protect this place and the people it serves.
Only now, when the reality is this stark, have we felt the time was right to share our position publicly. Not with despair, but with a final, determined push — with transparency and with hope.
If you may be able to help, please do!
If you know anyone who may be able to help — individuals, organisations, potential partners — please reach out to them. Every donation matters, every conversation counts, every introduction makes a difference, every link shared can lead to a solution.
We are not closing our doors without making one final, united, impassioned call to action. Please help in any way you can.
Please, if you can, be part of our future and make a donation today! Our target is £365,000 in the event of us not reaching our target your funds will be refunded by Crowdfunding.
“Absolutely tragic that this could be a possibility. I truly hope for a miracle because the alternative is heart-breaking for everybody involved with this amazing and special place 😞” - Tammy Eastham, Volunteer.
"This facility has supported my daughter through a very difficult period of time. The difference is huge. It’s enhanced her confidence, self esteem and ability to self advocate as well as helping her integrate with others. I cannot thank the staff here enough for all the help they have provided and how Brooke has come on as a result of the services offered here." - Kae, participant’s parent.
