Thanks to all our wonderful volunteers, last weekend we built a round pen, painted the feed room, added mud mats to the field shelter entrance, cleared the yard and made huge progress on the therapy room. The sun shone and we had a glorious day together.

Jan chatting to Robby about the meaning of life.

Robby is gently being integrated into the herd. He's a little horse with a BIG personality, so they're taking their time to figure out where he fits.

Our herd are looking for volunteers to help with their important therapeutic work at their new site in Monmouthshire. Lots of different roles available. Please get in touch! equinetherapy.center/contacts/

Nicky has new wheels!

Oashee gently greets our new herd member, Robby. Welcome Robby!

A little sad because we started the Equine Therapy Center at Avening Park and it's been a wonderful home for us, we also realise we may not see some of you quite so often as it is a little further, but we hope you'll come and visit us!

We hope everyone has had a fantastic Christmas 🎄 We have some news to share with you, and we are very excited, but also a little sad to be making this announcement. After 7 amazing years spent at Avening Park we now feel the time is right to find our new "forever" home.

The snow has melted now, we were glad to see it go! Here are May & the rest of the herd looking wonderful in this Christmassy landscape. May is the horse we have known for the longest, some of our team have known her since 2012! #winter #christmas #nearlychristmas #horses
