David Grant was first reported to Hillside Animal Sanctuary in 2013 when concerned locals saw he was keeping animals in appalling conditions. Hillside’s investigator visited Grant’s smallholding and filmed ponies and donkeys with severely overgrown feet. One donkey, instead of having proper farriery attention had simply had her hooves hacked off, her foal lay dead by her side. A link to the footage we obtained is here ...
• Hillside Investigate Habitual Neglect
During this time we made two reports to authorities about the neglect of the animals, but the owner received only an improvement notice. When we returned to the farm later we found a pony laying dead and his emaciated companions standing over him. We again reported the farm to the RSPCA, which only resulted in two ponies being removed and signed over to the Society. Unbelievably, even though the owner had previously been issued with an improvement notice following our earlier investigation, the vet that the RSPCA called would not support a cruelty case and so Grant was free to continue his neglect.
In February 2018 we again received further complaints that Grant was keeping animals in terrible conditions. Our investigator once again visited and filmed terribly neglected sheep, many lame and some with broken legs. This time we reported our findings to the Derbyshire rural crime team who, together with Derbyshire Trading Standards, brought charges against David Grant. We were relieved to find out that, on Friday 13th July 2018 David Grant was successfully convicted and received a lifetime ban from keeping farm animals and a suspended prison sentence.
