Thank you to everyone who completed our End of Year Survey! We are now looking through the ideas and seeing what we can plan for 2024. 

Thank you for all the lovely comments, such as: 

"The level of teaching is excellent, the care that is taken to get to know you and then tailor that to your pony, is the best I've experienced. You can see how dedicated and passionate they are."

"There is a great variety of horses for all abilities and they all have great characters. I like that the private lessons are tailored towards each rider and the card for each level system is really rewarding and motivating to work through."

"Lessons are varied, challenging, safe and never boring. It's been great having a variety of new horses to ride this year".

"All Pinkmead instructors are excellent, very patient, friendly, approachable and provide constructive feedback. They have helped me progress in my lessons much more quickly than I expected!"

We have spaces from January in our Home Education groups as part of our Changing Lives Through Horses programme, which alongside The British Horse Society offers an alternative education provision for young people (aged 5-25 years). Participants are quickly discovering that the transformative power of working with horses, combined with a focus on developing key skills they can use throughout their lives, has led to increased confidence and self-esteem, as well as lasting friendships – both human and equine!
