Egypt Equine Aid is a local animal charity for horses and donkeys based near Sakkara Country Club. It is run by Jill Barton and her husband and has a full time equine vet to treat animals in need. I have visited the hospital and am very impressed with the facility. They are in need of some items to help run the hospital efficiently so I have attached their ‘Wish List’. Many are medical supplies and others specialist horse supplies. If you can help by donating any items please let me know or send them with your child to the Senior British Office.

 

Thanks for your support,

 

Miss Julie Clarke
