That this House commends the Remus Memorial Horse Sanctuary for their magnificent and loving efforts in helping to care for a variety of horses and other large animals at their stables in Buttsbury, a tranquil part of Essex near Ingatestone; notes that the sanctuary engages in the exemplary practice of adopting maltreated animals, saving them from being beaten, tortured or starved, and offers them a peaceful, safe home; acknowledges the great achievements by the individuals living at Remus in educating people about the importance of providing for each animal's welfare and the inhumane treatment some animals experience; applauds the care taken by the staff at Remus to nurture the animals to full health; further notes how the sanctuary exemplifies the animal-loving nature of the majority of British people; and hopes to draw attention to the sanctuary's work so that many more horses and other animals can be rescued and live their lives in safe and caring surroundings.
