Animal Care

Help us to look after our wonderful animals by preparing their food, tidying out their houses and preparing their beds for the following night!

​

They also like lots of attention so make sure you talk to them and give them a stroke as well!

Health Walks

Enjoy our beautiful surroundings by participating in daily health walks through the local area.

​

The ponies, dogs, and occasionally goats, join us as part of their daily exercise routine.

Pony Agility

Build up a relationship with our ponies by developing skills such as hand/eye co-ordination and learning verbal commands, to lead them through a fun course of exercises and jumps.

Our calendar of activities is carefully planned so that every service user has the chance to participate in a range of programs that will enrich their lives physically, mentally, and socially.
