Horse Rescue Australia Inc. is a non-profit organisation and registered charity, devoted to the care and rehabilitation of horses that have been abused, abandoned or neglected. We are self-funded through memberships, sponsorships, donations and benefit events, and run by volunteers. HRA receives no government funding at all.

Since HRA began in 1986 over 1,400 horses have passed through our gates with the vast majority placed into new homes. By supporting the new owners and not allowing horses to be sold on, we are able to assure that they will never return to the situation and conditions that led them to needing rescuing.

Although sometimes heartbreaking, it is immensely gratifying when horses make a full recovery and are placed in new, caring homes. Such rehabilitation is a long and costly process, with special feeding, ongoing veterinary attention and necessities such as dentistry and farriery work.

Please look through our website and see how you can help us help neglected and abused horses. You can become a member or sponsor a horse (or all of them!). We need donations, memberships, and sponsorships constantly - this is the only way the horses can get the care, feed, vet services, medicines, rugs, etc that they need and deserve
You can also find HRA on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube.
