HorseWorld in Bristol looks after 100 animals on its site in Whitchurch and supports 200 more rehomed horses across the region.Head of equine welfare Sarah Hollister said: "Cost of living has had a huge impact. A lot of people who come in contact with us will go without to feed their animals, we see that a lot.""It's not good news at the moment.
"Before, there was some resilience in the system, but we have come to a point now where money has run out," she added.The charity said it had seen an increase in the numbers of abandoned and neglected horses. Digital communications manager Meg Jackson said: "The more support we can get at the moment, the more horses we can rescue.
"Hay has gone up, our vet bills are always going up - all our suppliers, their costs are going up as well, so it's really having a knock-on effect."Bus firm trying to track down owners of stowaway catHot air balloon to 'build bond' with Chinese city
