Participants get to work with a range of animals including miniature horses, donkeys, ponies and larger horses. We have lots of laughs and jokes, build strong, trusting connections with the animals and make lots of friends!
We have a team of leaders who work in small groups with the participants, and we love getting to know the kids and having lots of fun with them!
It is always a bit of a tear-jerker when we have to leave on the last day!​
