SOUTH West Equine Protection based in Princetown has expressed thanks to everyone who has helped the charity recently.

SWEP has received many enquiries not just to help with voluntary work, but also to home its ponies.

From that response the charity has managed to home a few ponies making room for four little additions —foals that are not even six-months-old.

SWEP is a charity formed entirely by volunteers.

Its purpose is to help equines in the south west which are abandoned or suffering from neglect and cruelty.
