Patrick is our poster boy for March
It’s March and Patrick the celebrity pony is our pin up for this month’s virtual calendar. He’s been nominated by his friends in north Devon for his work as a therapy pony. He visits local hospitals and care homes and brings joy and happiness to patients and residents.
He was called Patrick by the Petrakis family, who live with him in Torquay, because he was born on March 17 – St Patrick’s Day. He’s a miniature Shetland pony and so well behaved that on special occasions he is allowed into The Drum Inn, in nearby Cockington for a shandy. We are so proud to have him as our War Horse Memorial mascot and to have Kirk and Hannah Petrakis as Ambassadors.
