Promoting Inclusion for People with Intellectual Disabilities
Equine Programme
Help us raise €250,000 to enhance our equestrian centre in Baltinglass, Co. Wicklow, where individuals can enjoy the benefits of riding, grooming, feeding and interacting with horses.
Equine therapy helps to improve strength, balance, coordination and confidence, as well as fostering independence and connection.
Julia's equestrian experience
Julia O'Neill is a regular rider at our equestrian centre and enjoys taking part in competitions. Our expert staff help her to use specialised equipment to ensure her needs are met and she can have the best possible experience each time.
'It helps me stay strong and I have to concentrate going round the ring.'
What we need
To continue offering transformative equine therapy, the Equestrian Centre urgently needs €250,000 for essential improvements:
-
Modernising facilities to ensure a safe and welcoming environment for all.
-
Making the centre fully accessible for individuals with mobility challenges.
-
Providing care for our horses and maintaining riding gear.
-
Purchasing more horses suitable for therapeutic work with both children and adults with disabilities.
-
Expanding and adapting our therapeutic programmes to meet diverse needs.
