Dedicated to improving the lives of working horses, donkeys and mules in the poorest parts of the world.

The Brooke is an international animal welfare organisation dedicated to improving the lives of working horses, donkeys and mules in the poorest parts of the world.

Since the first Brooke hospital was founded in Egypt in 1934, they have expanded the reach of their work providing veterinary treatment and community programmes across the Middle East, into Africa and Asia and, more recently, Latin America.

This year, they will reach more than a million animals, benefiting around six million of the world’s poorest people, who rely on these animals to earn a basic living.

The Brooke’s goal is to increase the number of working animals they reach to two million a year by 2016.
