What we do

Introduction

My Lovely Horse Rescue is a registered charity operating in the Leinster and Cork regions. We rescue, rehabilitate and rehome equines and other animals; we assist authorities in moving equines to a place of safety; we advocate for the enforcement of animal welfare legislation and we educate around issues of responsible horse ownership.  Much of this work occurs in our centres (see below) as well as in the community.


Our Rescue Centres

My Lovely Horse Rescue Cork

MLHR has two rescue centres in Co Kildare. Our main centre is a 40 acre farm which was originally an old dairy farm. It has a charming little two-storey farmhouse where our volunteers can sleep over when they’re on duty and where everyone can eat lunch in our cosy farm kitchen surrounded by our rescue dogs who have the full run of the place. You also may often find yourself  munching beside one of the pigs or mini horses who try their luck and sneak in!

Our other centre is located at the home of our founder Cathy Davey. Her farm has become the base of My Lovely Pig Rescue and here Cathy is pioneering animal welfare treatment for pigs and farmed animals in general. She also looks after some of the equines who, due to ill health, cannot be rehomed.
We opened our MLHR Cork center in 2018. This is based on the family farm of Jeannette O’Connell through whose amazing kindness we have been able to establish our first base outside Leinster. The center is run by Kelly Mellerick and through the efforts of both these women and their small but dedicated volunteer team they have achieved so much in such a short space of time.

It’s a much smaller center than our Kildare ones and they usually have around 25 equines in their care. They may be a small operation but they have rescued over 100 equines since they started. They go to callouts all across Munster and also rescue horses from the pound. They have saved so many lives and we are beyond proud of our Southern operation.

My Lovely Vegan Food

With many of our volunteers being vegetarian or vegan we love to swap recipes and ideas together and now we’re bringing them to the public through the My Lovely Food Facebook and Instagram pages. The goal is to show how easy it can be to incorporate vegan meals into anyone’s diet and to share fun and easy ideas and recipes to try yourself.

My Lovely Auction grew from the seeds of creativity within our volunteer group and the need to harness much needed funds. Our crafters now include family, friends and supporters and our auctions have a huge selection of arts, crafts, jewellery and unique items on offer all made with love on behalf of MLHR. In these Covid times and with the escalation in online shopping we hope the My Lovely Auction page will offer our supporters the opportunity to purchase quality, eclectic, handmade gifts for all occasions. It’s a win win situation...great gifts for a great cause and so much fun too. https://www.facebook.com/My-Lovely-Auction-111109223960922
