==History==
World Horse Welfare was founded in 1927, as a campaigning organisation to prevent the export of live British horses for slaughter. The charity's founder, Ada Cole, was spurred into action after witnessing a procession of British work horses being unloaded and whipped for four miles to slaughter in Belgium.〔James, J. ''Debt of Honour: History of the International League for the Protection of Horses'' (Macmillan, 1994). ISBN 0-333-61791-6.〕
In 1937 after political lobbying by the charity, The Exportation of Horses Act is introduced to protect the welfare of horses destined for the slaughterhouses of Europe. This introduces the concept of ‘Minimum Values’, which effectively stops the export of live horses for slaughter from Great Britain.
The charity opened its first horse rehabilitation centre in Britain, in 1949, and started a first international training course in Morocco in 1985.
