In 2020, Her Majesty gave me the greatest award of my life for my work in horse protection, and I am eternally grateful to her. It’s time to pay tribute to the queen for her great work in protecting the voiceless we care so much about. My thoughts and prayers are with the Royal Family and the entire United Kingdom.”
