CHANGING LIVES THROUGH HORSES
Changing Lives Through Horses is a programme of regular sessions, taking place in a BHS Approved Riding Centre with qualified and experienced BHS Accredited Professional Coaches.
The programme is suitable for young people, aged 5-25, who are either permanently excluded, at risk of permanent exclusion or who have special education needs or disabilities (SEND) and those who are not in employment, education, or training (NEET). They may also be at risk of becoming socially excluded with income below the poverty line and without the skills to improve their economic situation.
The programme utilises a range of awards and achievements to create a community for development, learning and celebration.
The programme awards are structured around promoting the holistic development of all involved and nurturing six life skills for all young people:
building relationships,
Communication,
Confidence,
Responsibility,
Teamwork
Perseverance.

We do not have facilities to host guests accompanying participants. The majority of our sessions do not require parents or carers to stay, although you are welcome to wait in your vehicle. We will discuss your individual requirements with you before beginning a programme to ensure that all stakeholders are happy.
Referrals can be made by anybody wishing to gain additional support for their child or young person. We have considered referrals from schools, parents or guardians, social services and local authorities. The best way to begin your journey with us is to email quarryfarmchanginglives@gmail.com or message us on Facebook.
Our availability is very much linked to your needs. All participants are carefully scheduled to ensure their needs are fully met and we also have to consider our equine friends wellbeing too. Get in touch and we will do our best to accommodate you.
