This year’s box office smash Robin Hood starring Russell Crowe has given local company Healing Tree UK a premier endorsement. Russell Crow is riding horses in the new movie that have been bathed and beautified for the big screens with products supplied by Healing Tree UK, a relatively new Company based in Waterfoot, Rossendale. Kath Vines MD says “The horses were all bathed and cleaned using our natural Healing Tree products before the filming began. We were really pleased to receive the photos of Russell Crowe riding Rusty the grey horse with a thank you from the owners for the amazing products and to say the horses had all looked fabulous.”

Kath Vines and her family know all too well the pressure of producing horses to stand out from the crowd. Kath and her daughters have won many prestigious titles including Horse of The Show 2004 and 2008. It was Kath’s own grey horse Sparky that prompted her search for the ultimate grooming products to give that extra special finish needed for the immaculate turnout showing classes require. Healing Tree products are extremely well known in the USA but had yet to reach British shores until Kath was approached to try them. She was so impressed she set to work securing the European distribution. Now in its second year Kath and www.healing-tree.co.uk can add an impressive celebrity horse to the list of other satisfied customers.
