Adopt a pony and help give a rescued animal a safe and loving home at Goodheart Farm Animal Sanctuary. Our pony adoption scheme allows you to symbolically adopt one of our rescued ponies while supporting their lifelong care, enrichment and wellbeing.
Whether you’re looking for a meaningful pony adoption gift or want to adopt a pony in the UK, your support helps provide food, veterinary care and a safe place for ponies who have come from difficult backgrounds.
I’m one of the rescued ponies living at Goodheart Farm Animal Sanctuary. Before I arrived here, I lived with a group of travellers, but I kept escaping and eventually my owners didn’t want me back. The sanctuary took me in even though they weren’t fully open yet – and I’ve been here ever since.
Now I live here with my best friend Poppy and I couldn’t be happier. We enjoy lazy days grazing in our big field and cosy nights in our field shelter. By adopting a pony like me, you help ensure we continue to have a safe, enriching life.
You can adopt Harry the pony for just £30 for 12 months with a simple one-off payment.
