In the charity's own words
Our Group gives riding sessions to children and adults with impairments and/or health conditions from Monday to Friday during term time. We hire the ponies and horses from the riding school where we are based and we also use our mechanical horse called Jet. Riding and interacting with horses helps to build confidence, benefits health and can give a wonderful sense of achievement and independence.
