Esme Higgs officially launches Stable Squad

Equestrian and lifestyle influencer Esme Higgs – better known to her fans as This Esme – was guest of honour at our official launch Stable Squad, our brand new club for animal-loving children. Taking place on Thursday 15 August at our Glenda Spooner Farm Rescue and Rehoming Centre, Esme, who is also a Patron of our charity, delighted hoards of young fans alongside her World Horse Welfare rescue pony Duke. The pair were joined by Lemon LeMieux, who is also a World Horse Welfare pony, rehomed by the Le Mieux family, and the little Shetland is quickly building up her own fan base on social media.

Photo opportunities with their idol were in high demand by those attending the event, and one young fan, Purple Jones, was given an exclusive opportunity to interview Esme, to her absolute delight. With live demonstrations, LeMieux hobby horse jumping, face-painting and ice cream, there was plenty going on to keep everyone entertained. Stable Squad Ambassador and equestrian influencer Claudia Groves was also on hand to share her enthusiasm for the charity’s new club.

Stable Squad has been designed for young animal lovers, giving them exclusive access to HORSEsome opportunities and fun-filled learning, while supporting our charity’s vision of a world where every horse is treated with compassion, respect and understanding. Each member receives their very own Stable Squad Welcome Pack which includes an exclusive LeMieux cuddly horse with a bespoke World Horse Welfare rug. Twice a year, members also receive a copy of Stable Squad Magazine, which is packed with age-appropriate stories, games, puzzles, interviews with horse-loving superstars and fun things to do and make.
