EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures the moment of respite and retirement for two weary pit ponies, Plum and Danny, in the late 1930s. The pair, once strong and agile workers in coal mines, now enjoy the gentle care of The National Equine Defence League, an organization dedicated to the welfare and rescue of working horses and ponies. The image features Plum and Danny standing side by side, their coats glistening with sweat from a recent bath, as they gaze into the distance with contentment. Their bodies, once lean and muscular from years of labor, now carry the signs of age and hard work. The scene is completed by Alfred Brisco, the Organising Secretary of The National Equine Defence League, who stands behind them with a proud and satisfied expression. The National Equine Defence League was established in the early 1900s to provide relief and support for working horses and ponies, particularly those that had been retired or were no longer able to work due to injury or age. The organization played a vital role in the welfare of working animals during a time when they were essential to the British economy and industry. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the important work of charities like The National Equine Defence League and the compassionate care they provide for animals that have given so much throughout their working lives. Plum and Danny's story is one of many that highlight the importance of animal welfare and the role of charities in ensuring a better future for animals in need.
