DAYS OUT<br />

Bransby Horse<br />

Bransby Horses reveals plans<br />

for their Summer Fayre<br />

Lincolnshire-based equine charity, Bransby<br />

Horses, is hosting their 44th annual<br />

Summer Fayre on Sunday 2nd June <strong>2019</strong>.<br />

Last year, the Summer Fayre attracted a record<br />

number of visitors and it is hoped the Fayre this<br />

year will be another success for the charity. For<br />

many in the area, it is a chance to visit the local<br />

gem, take the family for a day out and meet some<br />

of the 400 animals the charity looks after across<br />

600 acres of beautiful countryside.<br />

Entry to Bransby Horses is free and the<br />

charity has confirmed they will have<br />

more activities than ever this year.<br />

There will be horse demonstrations,<br />

a trailer training and loading<br />

demonstration, a riding team<br />

display, falconry, children’s play zone, arts and<br />

crafts, a dog show, dog agility display, shopping<br />

(including a second hand tack sale), glitter<br />

tattoos, charity stands, a barbecue and a wide<br />

selection of food available. There will also be the<br />

usual picturesque walkways available to enjoy<br />

a stroll, so families can visit some of the horses,<br />

donkeys and mules who are living there.<br />

Visitors can travel by car as there is plenty of<br />

parking (suggested donation £1) but Stagecoach<br />

will also be providing a free local bus service<br />

from Lincoln City Centre Bus Station which<br />

runs through Saxilby and stops at the Visitor<br />

Centre at Bransby Horses.<br />

Having celebrated their 50th<br />

anniversary last year, the charity has<br />

also recently confirmed they have<br />

almost reached 1,000 equines in their care. More<br />

than 400 equines living on site and 500 rehomed<br />

but continuing to receive support from the<br />

charity. In fact, last year alone, the charity helped<br />

rescue and rehabilitate 93 horses, donkeys and<br />

mules showing how the role of public support<br />

continues to be pivotal to the continuation of the<br />

work the charity do.<br />
