The Brooke story... watch our story unfold with exclusive new footage. An incredible insight into how a hospital for ex-cavalry horses on the dusty streets of 1930s Cairo became one of the world’s leading international equine welfare charities alleviating the suffering of hundreds of thousands of horses, donkeys and mules in some of the poorest parts of the world.
