tbh I think photos may be getting too complicated? I think charity might be nicer, photos are a very personal thing?

sent money, thank you for sorting this, such a positive move to such a horrible tragic accident. We were there and will never forget that the horse was so noble, as he got up obviously in tremendous pain, he whinned and just stood still. God rest his sole. My thoughts are with everyone concerned, I am sure Mary would have rather taken the injury than the horse.

OK we have a large amount of money so here is my suggestion:
Flowers for Mary, Janette and Grooms tomorrow.
If Lucretia can send me the full size image of that photo, I can get it made into a really smart box frame at a very reasonable price. A Box frame is the popular alternative to canvas - it's really smart.
I'll keep taking donations until the box frame is delivered (takes about 7 days)
I'll then send donations to the charities and confirmation of the donation to Mary with the box frame, which she can keep or pass on to Janette or the Groom or even sign and use for charity as she wishes.
Sorry it keeps changing but I want to try and make everyone feel happy with what we are doing
Are the Grooms c/o the same address as Mary does anyone know?

Absolutley perfect IMO thanks for telling me how to send money via PM I have sent it.
Thoughts to all connected to Cavvy. RIP x

I think this is a great idea, best of both worlds although I do like the picture Gonetofrance has done as well. I've just sent my £5 think it's amazing how much has been raised in such a short space of time, just goes to show how much we all think of Mary and of course the wonderful Cavvy who, I personally think, was an amazing horse and the relationship these two had was something that's hard to come by.

Thanks for that, I just want to clarify, my pic's separate to the fund, I'm not after anything for it...... the original was a commission from the owners, so it's up to them whether they want me to do a (gifted) print for her.
I can't get my head round what's happened.

I too have donated. I am totally bewildered to see that he is gone
We only watched her jumping him at Your Horse live a couple of weeks ago and it was obvious how much she adored him.
Absolutely gutting and my heart is broken for her. Thank you for organising this collection HH and I am willing to go along with whatever you decide, although I have to agree that I don't think I would send a picture just yet.
RIP Cavvy and huge hugs to all those that loved you.

Have donated, though can't afford much

Love the idea of flowers to owners and Mary, and I think some kind of picture would be lovely. I think she would be touched, and whilst she probably already has plenty of photos, I still think one nice big print would mean a lot.

That sounds good to me, and I think it would be best to let Mary decide what to do with the left-over money.
Mary is a legend and he was such a fantastic horse - it was a privilege yesterday to see them doing such a wonderful dressage test and utterly heartbreaking to see their terrible fall

I don't think flowers are too soon, but with a simple card. I do think a photo would be lovely, but not yet. I know when I lost my boy it was too painful even to look at his photo for a while. She is so deep in grief to open a photo at this point may hurt even more. But a lovely idea and maybe in a while?
Everyone has been so lovely, Mary is so loved by everyone for her demeanour over the years, her love and compassion for her horses and I think to know everyone is thinking of her and Cavvy at this time will help somewhat.

Just caught up with some of this. My view, for what it's worth, is that flowers for Mary and the grooms would be lovely and for them to be sent today as well, and have donated. I think the photo idea should be dropped. She will have all sorts of pictures of him over the years, and just at the moment she may well not feel able to look at them. I know I couldn't for weeks after my horses have gone, and none of them died in such tragic circumstances. Just keep it to the flowers, please, and let Mary make a decision about a charity for the balance. In Memory of Cavvy.

What a lovely idea, well done for organising this. I'm sure Mary King will be very touched by this gesture.

Great idea, will donate now.
I was lucky enough to go to Marys yard in the spring with our riding club. She was amazing and it was so clear she loved her horses. She was also really generous, didn't want to be paid but asked for us to donate to the Devon Air Ambulance. I am sure she would appreciate the idea of a charity benefitting so that some good can some out of this horrible tragedy.
