00:00Oh the open day is going to be great. So it's a family fun day really. People can
00:05come on site, they get to meet the most important characters of Horse World,
00:10which are the horses. There will be demonstrations through the day, there'll
00:15be opportunities to meet the team, there'll be amazing refreshments going on,
00:20so there'll be opportunities to tour the site. It's a whole day of a real
00:25behind-the-scenes opportunity to get involved at Horse World. So the rest of the time
00:31here at Horse World we are a working farm, so we rescue, rehabilitate and rehome
00:36horses, ponies, donkeys, mules and we rescue them, we bring them on site, we
00:44will take care of them, whatever they need we'll take the best care of them
00:48and then depending on what that horse needs they will either be rehomed with a
00:52loving home, they will stay on site as a resident or they will become part of our
00:58Discovery Programme, which works with vulnerable young people to help them
01:02learn essential life skills.
