Our strategy at a glance:
Our vision:
A world where the needs of domestic horses are met by providing them with a species-appropriate ‘lifestyle’ that recognizes horses as part of an ecosystem not separate to it.
Our mission:
To ensure domestic horses have the best life possible by educating horse owners about:

Ownership:
Responsible,
Sustainable,

Our beliefs:

2. Domestic horses deserve to have the best life that we can provide for them.
3. Domestic horses can be managed in a way that is good for them and the wider environment at the same time.

Our values:
1. We are innovative.
2. We are empathetic.

5. We have integrity.
Our priorities:
Education about responsible, sustainable, and ethical best practices for horses and the wider environment.
Our ambitions:

2. To reach and challenge the thinking of a larger percentage of the horse-owning population.
3. To work increasingly more closely with environmental organizations to deliver more information to more horse owners.
4. To become the worldwide recognized authority on sustainable horsekeeping and equine land management.
