Young people are at the heart of what we do. We provide a tailored program through positive equine interaction, designed to help them to develop self awareness, coping mechanisms and life skills at their own pace, and in a calm and nurturing way, enabling them to recognize their own strengths and abilities, and achieve goals in a safe and comfortable environment.
We will introduce you to the horses, help you understand their body language, let them get to know you, and then we will work on a one to one basis helping you on your journey, at your pace, in a warm, friendly and calm environment.


The Idea, having been years in developing, is basically Lets Give this Community something it doesnt have, let's work with young people struggling in mainstream education, those who need something DIFFERENT.
Located on the outskirts of Carlisle with easy access to M6 at Junction 42
within a dedicated Equestrian Centre within our own controlled space with access to beautiful countryside hacks, both indoor and outdoor competition arenas.
We would welcome you to a relaxed, friendly and safe environment where you can begin or in some cases continue to grow at your pace with a friendly knowledgeable family.
