Meet Our Ponies
Our ponies are the lifeline for so many of our students. Currently we have a team of nine teaching, reflecting and empowering our students in a way only they can.
Pearl
Pearl was born in 2016 and is a guarter horse x clysdale. She is a little more challenging than the miniatures, so great for particpants as they grow in confidence.
Checkers
Checkers came to us in 2024. He is the leader of the herd. He's super chill and takes everything in his stride, nothing phases him. He loves to be groomed. He is also a TV star as he featured in the Good Sorts programme about Rachel Ralph.
Maxi
Maxi was born in 2014 and is the smallest of our equine team. He loves attention, is not phased by anything and will do any activity you point him at. He is good at escaping his paddock and loves going for a run or jumping.
He is a one-in-a-million pony!
Primo
Primo came to us in 2025 from the same farm as Ellie May. He is the sweetest and most affectionate boy and loves loves loves a cuddle and being in your space. He is super chill and takes everything in his stride.
Lacey
Lacey was born in 2006 and arrived at the farm in March 2022. She is a minature pony and was kindly gifted to us. Lacey is a very fast learner. She loves her equine friends and always gives a quiet neigh to them when they walk by. She has a very young, gentle spirit which makes her a popular choice among students.
Jay Jay
Jayjay is our little energetic guy. He came to us in August 2024. He loves running round and playing with all of his pony friends. He's a little cutie. He is a sensitive soul and loves to connect with participants in meaningful ways.
Charlie
Charlie came to us in March 2024. He's such a smooch he loves a cuddle and brush. He is a great teacher to our participants who struggle with boundary setting.
Blue
Blue was born in 2019 and arrived beginning of 2023.
He is a Timor x and one of our smaller ponies. He didn't have the best start to his life and this, combined with the fact he is so young, means he doesn't have a lot of life experience. !However he is proving to be a great pony in our programmes and a popular choice from our participants

Ellie May
Ellie May came to us in 2025 from a dairy farm close by. She had been a kids pony prior and loves cuddles. Shes super sweet but also very sassy and can be a little bossy.
Pony Needs
To grow our services we need more ponies, it takes a special pony to do this work, and it's important we have enough to rotate so they have breaks to keep them fresh. Finding them is difficult, so if you know of a potential good fit to our team, please get in touch.
​
Also like all ponies, they cost lots of money, to keep them healthy and well. Costs include, feed, covers, farrier, vets, dentists, tack.
