Closing Date: 30th April 2026
A charming tale of friendship, kindness and one little pony making a big difference.
Ali regularly takes Jack, a friendly and mischievous miniature Shetland pony, to visit people in care homes. During one visit, they meet Billy, a boy who often visits his grandfather.
Billy is surprised but delighted to meet Jack, and he praises the hard-working nurses. His comment about the need for more specialist nurses gets Ali thinking –could Jack Brock somehow help? Ali decides to organise a sponsored walk with Jack to raise money, leading to a day full of fun, community and coming together to help a valuable cause.
