Sponsor a Pony
Could you sponsor one of our beautiful ponies for yourself or a loved one?
Your sponsorship will include a booklet containing a photograph and details of the pony being nominated, plus your name (or the person you've sponsored for) will be displayed adjacent to the pony’s stable at The Shelley Centre.
We suggest a donation of £25 for 12 months sponsorship. Monies donated by Sponsors will be used for all aspects of the welfare and wellbeing of all the ponies at The Centre, as well as covering any minor costs incurred in administering the scheme.
The ponies below are all available for sponsorship, please choose your pony and then click the button to download the application form.


April is a beautiful bay Exmoor mare and is only 13:2 but with more than enough character to make her seem bigger. She is very kind and a little bit cheeky!

Cloud is a 13:2HH cob who is loved by riders and volunteers alike. He is gentle, kind and steady with a great walk!

Thomas is wonderful - he loves his job and the children that ride him fall in love instantly. Though only 12:2 he has enormous presence and is very handsome.

Cali is the biggest horse we have standing at 16:2hh. He is very gentle and steady with a fantastic temperament - definitely a gentle giant.

Bryn has been with us the longest of all our horse and is veteran of the centre. He is invaluable to us for his patience and kindness but can be little cheeky with his carers from time to time.

Chocolate is tiny! We don't use her for riding but she is definitely a visual therapy horse!! she is endlessly patient and loves to be groomed by anyone and everyone.
