WELCOME

The Herd @ iYadi may very well be the only non-profit, non-riding 'forever-home' for injured, rescued and retired equines in South Africa, maybe even in the whole of Africa where human interaction is on their terms and where they live a 'wild & carefree life'

The Herd @ iYadi has a 'Right-to-Life' policy, which means that no equine  is put to sleep unless they are suffering and it is in their best interest to humanely do so

The Herd @iYadi seeks to promote equine welfare and well-being

The Herd @ iYadi relies on the generosity of all those who identify with and partner, sponsor, donate and volunteer their time and resources to make this possible

FOCI of THE HERD

  1. Provide a Forever Home for injured, rescued and retired polo ponies and other equines who are members of their herd

  2. Partner with the equine community in support of  welfare and well-being 

  3. Advocate social change for equines in general

  4. 'Spending-Time'; provide an environment where humans and ponies may interact in a reciprocally respectful space to support mental health and well-being 

  5. Community Engagement; facilitate a space for those who would otherwise not have the opportunity to engage with equines

  6. Photo-shoots, advertising and film (no saddles / reigns / bridles or bits)

  7. Education and training
