Springwood Sanctuary

​Springwood Sanctuary provides exceptional, species appropriate, lifelong love, care and sanctuary to 22 horses, ponies and donkeys. It is here in their free roaming herds, where they enjoy a natural, enriched and truly peaceful life – one where their mental and physical wellbeing is fundamental to our ethos.
​
It is our passion to support them as they thrive and heal from past domesticated trauma. We have given our commitment to these beautiful animals that they will never again be used in any way and to enable them to live with autonomy over their own bodies, freedom of choice and holistic healing.
​
We are also passionate about conservation of wildlife and the Earth. We care for the land here holistically – enabling the biodiversity of plants and habitats for wildlife to flourish – recovering from what was until fairly recently farmed and over managed land. It is our joy to see an increase in native wildlife, plants and trees as the herds of horses, ponies and donkeys conservation graze the land.
​
We are a privately funded, not for profit sanctuary, set in 80 acres of beautiful south west Wales.
