12-year-old raises £1k for Brooke in Snowdon climb
Rosie's late grandfather had a keen interest in Brooke’s work.
A 12-year-old and her mum from Oxfordshire have raised over £1,000 for Brooke, after climbing Snowdon this summer.
Rosie (12) and Vicky Trietline from Wantage trekked Snowdon in north Wales on 26 August 2025, with fundraising proceeds going to charity.
Brooke is close to the pair’s heart, as active members of the Old Berkshire Pony Club’s horse and pony care team and because they also visited some of our work in Egypt.
Vicky Trietline said: “Rosie’s late grandfather also had a keen interest in Brooke’s work, and we adopted a donkey at a local sanctuary in his memory.
“He would be so proud of Rosie’s initiative in raising over £1,000 for Brooke.”

Over 100 million working animals globally pull carts, carry goods and work the land, supporting 600 million people to put food on their table and send their children to school.
Brooke works with owners, communities and governments across three continents to make long lasting welfare improvements for these animals.
