Welcome to the Lluest Horse and Pony Trust
Rescue Rehabilitation Rehoming
Lluest Horse and Pony Trust is proud to be one of only two National Equine Welfare Council member equine welfare charities in Wales.
Founded in 1985 by the remarkable late Ginny Hajdukiewicz, Lluest has rescued over 400 ponies in 35 years. While Ginny sadly passed away at the young age of 38, the trust is her legacy. Her passion informs our work to this day.
Lluest, meaning ‘haven’ in Welsh, strives to provide a place of safety and rescue to horses and ponies who have been victims of abandonment, cruelty and neglect on our 40 acre farm in the Brecon Beacons.
Our work
Rescue is just the beginning for our horses and ponies. Our experienced small team tailor our care to each animal, to provide for their individual needs through rehabilitation. Once back at optimum health, our ultimate aim is always to find each pony a loving experienced Guardian home. We believe every horse and pony deserves a second chance to flourish in safety.

How you can help
Sponsor a pony
Rehoming isn’t always a viable option for some horses and ponies, who will have a place of haven and safety at Lluest for as long as they need it. Support our long-term residents by sponsoring a pony.
Rehoming
Providing a home to a rescue is the most rewarding journey. We can’t promise perfection, but we wouldn’t want them any other way. Our Guardian network is trusted with the care of over 100 rescued horses and ponies, with our team supporting every step of the way.
Support our work
As a small charity and independent rescue organisation, we rely solely on public support. We couldn’t continue without you. There are so many ways you can support us and make a difference to rescued ponies.
