Our summer term started on Monday 8th April and hopefully as we move into Spring the weather will improve, but please keep an eye out for messages in case any sessions need to be cancelled due to the weather.
All terms dates can be found on our Volunteer and Participant pages.
We currently have a waiting list, but do still get in touch as participants change all the time. Please contact Frances on flochrane@btinternet.com for more information.
As well as our flat work riding and hacking, we can now offer show jumping, endurance riding and non-riding therapy. The date for our next ‘Tea with a Pony’ is to be advised.
