The Unicorn Centre relies entirely on lesson and training fees, hire of the premises, donations and fundraising to keep operating.
We need at least £300,000 a year to maintain the property, pay salaries and feed and house our horses and ponies. So we need your help desperately!
Have a look at our list of projects on the right of this page.

ADOPT A PONY AND SUPPORT US
Please help raise funds for the Centre by adopting one of our horse/ponies. For £24 a year your donation will help to feed and support your adopted horse/pony.
Your pack includes a certificate of adoption, a birthday card on your birthday, an invitation to our annual Adopt a Pony Christmas Party and Chester, the cute cuddly horse with the Unicorn Centre logo on his jumper. Visits to your horse/pony can be arranged by prior appointment. This makes a great gift! Please contact the Centre on 01642 576222 to purchase.
Your contribution will help to feed and care for one of our horses or ponies.
OTHER WAYS TO HELP THE UNICORN CENTRE:
1 Tell your colleagues and bosses about the Unicorn Centre and suggest that they adopt us as their Charity of the Year. You could organise fundraising events for us, or matchfund events we run.
2 Volunteer to help us organise our fundraising events or you may want to organise your own event and obtain sponsorship. Please let us know and we will provide you with official sponsorship forms.
3 Do you know any businesses or organisations that would be keen to sponsor a pony for a year? £2000 would help to feed, stable and shoe one pony for a year.
4 Or how about advertising in the Arena? An advertising board measuring 2.5m x 1.5m only costs £275 - a year, a snip compared to advertising in the press. At least 8,000 people would see the board in a year.
5 Check the website, Facebook (RDA Unicorn Centre) and Twitter (@RDAUnicornCentre) for the events we've arranged for this year, perhaps you could attend or help us - we're always in need of volunteers!
6 We are also always on the lookout for raffle and tombola prizes, so please donate those unwanted pressies! Drop them in at the office PLEASE!
