A shop has opened in Mayland to support the Remus Horse Sanctuary in Ingatestone, which cares for more than 200 animals, including horses, ponies and donkeys, as well as cows, sheep and cats.
At the opening of the Imperial Avenue shop on Saturday, Emma Greenfield brought along her horse Maestro, adorned in feathers, to impress passers-by and Maldon MP John Whittingdale was there to cut the ribbon. The shop is open from Monday to Saturday and sells all of the usual donated items such as clothing, books and toys, but also has a special horse riding section with old bridles, jodhpurs and hats. Maestro got a little spooked by the ribbon cutting and uncged forward to investigate!
