We have 12 riders on our books and over 25 volunteers. We have 2 instructors and our sessions are on a Tuesday evening from 5-7. We use 3 horses that are owned by the centre and 4 ponies that are brought in by our volenteers for the evening. We have a mixed age and ability group. Each year the group takes 6 riders to the Clywd Special Riding Centre in Wales. We have been going for 9 years and we find that our riders beneft from the continual riding in the week.
