Transforming Lives Together
Mane Chance Sanctuary
Our mission is to rescue and rehabilitate abused, abandoned and old horses, integrating them with the local community.
For people. For horses. For better lives.
"A wonderful place, there's a sort of 'other worldliness' about it, a real gem in the heart of Surrey."
Ian, visitor
Transforming Lives Together.
We have a passion, a dream, that through the work we do with our horses for people in need, we will be able to “prove the value of the horse as a healer”.
Our horses are all rescued animals who have suffered situations of abuse, neglect or abandonment and they clearly understand how difficult and complicated life can be. Now feeling safe, loved and cared for at the Sanctuary, they give themselves so generously to our visitors who need a little support too - helping us to help them.
We hope you enjoy our video.

Your generosity makes this possible.
