We run riding sessions for individuals and/or small groups of riders, either in our enclosed outdoor arena or safely in the adjoining countryside.

Each rider is assisted with mounting using our purpose built mounting ramp and with dismounting. Our riders are always accompanied by a trained coach, a first aider and members of our volunteer team.

We encourage interaction with our ponies, whether it is simply a pat and a stroke, learning about and helping with pony care, or maybe helping to lead their pony back to the stable.

When possible we offer riding sessions within the following time periods,  usually in term time only:

1.30pm – 4.30pm on Mondays

10.00am - 4.30pm on Tuesdays
