Please note: Our children’s sessions are designed for young participants to attend independently. Parents, guardians, or carers are kindly asked to drop their child off with the facilitator at the meeting point at the stated start time and leave for the duration of the session. This helps to create a focused, supportive environment where children can fully engage with the session. Collection will take place from the same meeting point at the scheduled end time – please be prompt to help us wrap up the session smoothly.

 

We’ll always have your emergency contact details on hand, and will be in touch immediately if needed. If there’s anything specific we should know ahead of the session (medical info, additional needs, etc.), please ensure that this information is recorded on the booking form and we are kept updated regarding any changes.

​

Why Equine-Assisted Learning?

​

Equine-assisted learning uses the natural response of horses to human emotions and body language to help children develop critical life skills. Through our programme, children will:

​

• Build empathy and self-awareness

​

• Develop social and emotional skills

​

• Feel calmer, more grounded, and more confident

​

All while enjoying outdoor adventures!
