Bay Pony, Gelding, 14hh
Ollie was born in 1998 and joined our team in 2021. As a younger gentleman he enjoyed trail rides, jumping, mounted games, equitation & went on all sorts of adventures! As a more senior horse he is enjoying a more sheltered and sedated life amongst our Herd!
Hobbies: exploring the bush and finding new corners of our Centre to explore.


It takes a very special horse to become an RDA horse and we are very lucky to have our incredible team.
Our herd receive hard feed at least twice a day due to not being on pasture, and have regular visits form the farrier, vet & dentist (yes, horses have to brush their teeth too!). Their continued upkeep requires volunteers attend the Centre multiple times a day to receive & distribute feeds, ensure their health, well-being and ongoing training is continued.
The annual costs of each horse is roughly $5,000 – $6,000 each year. To find out more about these expenses, or to make a donation please visit our donations page.
“The essential joy of being with horses is that it brings you in contact with the rare elements of grace, beauty, spirit and freedom.”
