A summary

Get ready to meet, lead or ride a pony (depending on your preferences and needs), and learn all about how to look after them, have fun and make new friends, all within a safe environment! Activities may vary but we aim to meet, lead or ride a pony. You may learn how to groom one as well. There will be other fun games and learning to join in with, plus snacks, refreshments and a well earned rosette! Parents, carers and guardians are asked to stay for the Briefing and for the whole session if they think that their participant may need support at any point during it. We look forward to seeing you soon!
