The September 2025 edition of The Plaister Charity Newsletter reflects a period of extraordinary change, challenge, and progress.

This issue shares news of three very special foals born in May, including heart-warming stories of resilience, careful veterinary support, and dedicated teamwork. It also highlights major developments within our breeding programme, including new 100% Crabbet mares and stallions joining the charity to strengthen the preservation of these historic bloodlines.

A significant focus of this newsletter is the decision to move the charity to a new home. After careful consideration, the trustees concluded that relocation offers the best opportunity to safeguard the horses’ welfare, expand public engagement, and secure the charity’s long-term future — a decision made firmly in keeping with Geoffrey Plaister’s legacy.

Readers will also find updates from the trustees, news of new equipment and resources supporting welfare work, preservation of historic Crabbet artefacts, and behind-the-scenes insights into life at the stud.

As we look ahead, this issue marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for The Plaister Charity — one built on transparency, care, and a shared commitment to the future of the Crabbet Arabian horse.
