Horse Stables Destroyed By Arson
Donation protected
I have started this page to try to raise some money to help rebuild these horses' stables that were totally destroyed by arson. Or to at least get them a shelter to use for now, as they have been left with no where to shelter from the weather.
At approx 22:30 12/7/18 the stable block was deliberately set on fire, fortunately the horses were out in the field and not inside at the time but they easily could have been. If the fire service had not been so quick to arrive the whole grass field with the horses in could have caught alight as it has been so dry recently.
Two teenagers or young men were seen fleeing the scene as the fire engines arrived.
A 7 stable block and all their contents totalling £14,000 have been completely destroyed.
The police investigation is on going. If you have any information please call 101 and quote reference 41/17092/18. Whoever did this could strike again and next time the horses may not be so lucky.
The owner saved for a long time to get these stables, they were only built in December 2017 and it has all been taken away in an instant by mindless idiots.
It's not fair the horses now have to suffer from their actions and due to the scale and cost of the damage, it is not something that can be put right without some help.
The stables were home to Twiglet, Mika, Lilly, Didi, Mystique, Oakley & Skippy who ages range from 2 to 28 years old.
Even the smallest donation adds up, anything at all will be greatly appreciated. If you can't afford to donate please share it if you can.
Below are pictures before and after the fire. It is absolutely devastating that someone could do this.
