Our volunteers have talked about what a rewarding experience working at Reanimate has been for them over the years. Here’s what they have to say about working with us:

“I found it hard to be confident in who I was and what I was worth and I had such high expectations for myself that brought out a nervousness in me because I wanted everything to be perfect and that was impossible…One of the most vital things I learnt was that the reason these horses thrive is because there is no expectation for them to be perfect. There is no expectation for them to be one thing or another so somebody else. They’re who they are for themselves.”

“Reanimate has created a safe space where I can look after sociable animal pals, which in turn give me all the love they have to give. I am forever grateful to have a place among the Reanimate volunteers and be part of a community, a family, that brings me so much joy.”

“All tasks are enjoyable in their own sense. Some are therapeutic, some are good hard graft – which I love!”

“Mucking out the field with the volunteers at the yard while the horses occasionally come to interact with the team is an amazing and emotionally fulfilling feeling.”
