What we Do
We provide fast, effective, solution-based learning and development programmes for personal and professional development in business. We believe people have the answers within - they just need the space and freedom to discover it via a solution focused intervention
- Horse Sense for Life allows participants freedom of choice and encouragement to step out of their comfort zone, making positive choices and taking responsibility for their own actions through Equine Assisted Learning.
- Whilst working with the horses you will be given various activities and tasks to complete with them. Through their behaviour the horses will reflect what they sense. Horse Sense for Life facilitators will then provide feedback on the horse observations to provide insight to enable your development.
We work with children and young people in an outdoor, natural environment through facilitating interaction with horses. We support them through various challenges and transitions in life, using the Eagala model of equine assisted growth and learning.
We offer participants the opportunity to interact with horses and may be given various activities and tasks to complete. The sessions are designed to provide opportunities for self-discovery and development of life skills, positive behavioral change, life choices and self-esteem.
All sessions are from the ground (no horse riding) and no previous experience with horses is required. Sessions are facilitated by a qualified mental health and a horse professional in partnership with the horses.

Discovery learning through horses
Discovery learning is a facilitated approach of experiential learning, where you learn by doing and discovering for yourself rather than being shown or told what to do. We believe we have the answers within; we just need the space, freedom and creativity to discover this for ourselves.
Discovery learning helps children who struggle in main stream education to discover their talents, passion and uniqueness, enabling them to shine. Our work also extends to support the family unit.
