About Highveld Horse Care Unit

For the well-being and dignity of every equine we can reach.

Highveld Horse Care Unit works with equines, including horses and donkeys, across a wide spectrum of welfare needs, from urgent intervention to long-term education and responsible rehoming.

From its base in Meyerton, the Unit responds to welfare concerns, assists equines whose owners may not have access to appropriate services, rehabilitates animals in its care, supports rehoming and takes practical welfare into townships and rural communities.

The organisation's approach recognises that lasting welfare is not achieved through treatment alone. Education matters. Follow-up matters. Responsible ownership matters. And in under-resourced communities, building knowledge and practical capability can make a meaningful difference long after a clinic or inspection has ended.
