Changing lives Through Horses Program

Changing lives though horses aims to improve the lives of young people who, for various reasons, may need additional support, are disengaged, or disadvantaged, or at risk of becoming excluded from education. 

Using horses as the inspiration for change, the programme provides an alternative and complementary learning environment to mainstream education. The skills developed through the programme meet the requirements of ongoing education and training, employers and participants. 

The programme works to develop six key life skills through equestrian activity:  

• Communication 
• Confidence 
• Building relationships 
• Teamwork 
• Responsibility 
• Perseverance 

There are two frameworks – the achieve awards aimed at 5-11 year olds and the explorers wards aimed at 11 –25 year olds, although participants can follow the framework most appropriate to them regardless of age. Both offer horse care and ridden modules.
