Summerfield Stables is a community group that has been established over forty three years. Its aim is to encourage children and young people in the Yardley Wood area of Birmingham to understand and interact with horses. The young people who visit the stables are mostly between the ages of seven and eighteen and come from the surrounding areas, including Yardley Wood, Hall Green, Balsall Heath, Ki

ngs Heath and Billesley. We also encourage children with both mental and physical disabilities. As well as young people there are many adults who volunteer at the stables and everyone is welcome to contribute in order to benefit the horses

This week Summerfield Stables lost a legend. After a sudden onset of an illness the decision was made for Apollo to be put to sleep. We are hugely grateful to Jane from
for her prompt support for Apollo and to the team of vets for his care of him over the time he has been with us. We are also greatful for our Summerfield Stables team who cared for him daily. Apollo was 30 years old and has been full of personality throughout his 20 years with us. Many of our instructors learned to ride on him and he has also been gentle with beginner riders. He was the noisiest horse on the yard in the morning and demanded to be the first to be fed by kicking his door. Zooming in the field was his speciality and he loved to play and run round as well as stretch out completely for a morning nap. He will be missed by so many but we are hugely grateful for his time with us and all that he has given us and our team did our best to give him a full and happy life.

Please share photos of Apollo here and any fond memories here.
