Horse and Pony Protection Association

The Horses and Ponies Protection Association is one of the oldest and most respected charities for equine welfare.
Founded in 1937 to help fight against the transportation of large horses to the continent for slaughter, HAPPA continues to play a major role in all aspects of equine welfare.
Instrumental in achieving better protection for horses with the Riding Establishments Act, The Ponies Act 1969, The Illegal Tethering Act 1991 and by setting up the National Equine Welfare Committee 1997, HAPPA continues to campaign for improvements to existing legislation to ensure that horses, ponies and donkeys are protected from cruelty and neglect. http://www.happa.org.uk/about.asp
