Support for us and peace of mind for you

When our daughter’s pony, Phoenix had a four-inch thorn twig stuck in his eye, we were able to get him the treatment he needed very quickly, and the claim process was straightforward with our World Horse Welfare insurance. It is great value as you can insure as many horses as you need per household, and we like the fact we are supporting a great charity too.
