Hooves for Healing

We are an Equine Assisted learning project, engaging with the local community and surrounding region, offering a service which has improved the quality of life for many children, young teens and adults. We are a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO). Staff are all enthusiastic, knowledgeable horse owners/loaners and have experience working with children/young people with additional needs, and learning difficulties. Our training is updated regularly through The British Horse Society (BHS)

Equine-assisted learning is a holistic, alternative coaching tool used to engage and build trust and bonding between equine service users and staff.

​Teamwork is encouraged as equine, client and practitioner work closely with the help of a person-centred learning program to encourage an individual's self-development.

Some service users like the repartition during their sessions, others like to be creative, try new things, explore and push their boundaries.

Therapeutic riding can be incorporated as part of the service users person centred programme, leading the pony, brushing, stroking/ touching the pony can also be included. creative activities can take place either under our purpose-built outside sheltered or outside in our paddock, always ensuring the service users' safety is maintained.

Educational picture card activities are available, as well as picture/letter signs in the sand paddock, this form of learning is ideal for our clients, some of who are non-verbal and thrive from taking part in visual activities. 

Physical exercise although not embraced by all, can add an element of exercise to a service user plan by encouraging walking to collect their pony and return them back to the paddock.

We always set our service users up to succeed, which promotes self-esteem, trust, and confidence and leaves them with a great sense of achievement.
