Hope Reins
Hope Reins was established in January 2010 by Ruth and Kylie. Their dream was to rescue horses from all kinds of awful situations and to invite people who have also had struggles in their lives (and who hasn’t?) to come and help us love the horses back to health. The horse and human then help each other to heal and to trust again.
