It has allowed the Brooke team to help communities impacted by Covid-19, providing fodder, first aid kits and medicines.

Brooke Action for Working Horses and Donkeys aims to raise £100,000 to support communities and working horses, donkeys and mules impacted by Covid-19. Some states have imposed lockdown restrictions, but as the pandemic rages on, loyal working animals are carrying essential supplies of food and water to keep their communities going.
