EQUINE INTERACTIONS
​There is no doubt that horses have therapeutic qualities.  Our Equine Interactions are based on the 5 Steps to Wellbeing Model and the principles of Equine Facilitated Interactions.  This combined approach means that our programmes operate under 3 main pillars:
  1. Emotional Intelligence
  2. Physical benefits
  3. Connection with Nature.
 We nurture positive wellbeing, practical skills and coping strategies through the use of horses in the great outdoors. Our programmes are designed to focus on the connection with self, connection with horse and a sense of purpose.   The stables is a safe secure environment surrounded by 30 acres of lush green countryside.

Pauline has a wealth of experience in team development, leadership and coaching and, as a 4th generation farmer, in animal husbandry and in particular in caring for and working with horses.  She is a Member of Athena Herd and Accredited Member of the Association for Accredited Counsellors Coaches Psychotherapists & Hypnotherapists.  For more information why not contact us on info@cityofderryequestrian.com
SCHOOL AND COMMUNITY VISITS
Horse riding is a great way to get young people active and out enjoying the fresh air, increasing their flexibility and coordination, as well as overall fitness levels. Fun and engaging, it’s also a fantastic way to teach children about caring for animals and respecting nature, and contributes to their wider personal and social development.

Our school and community visits offer a taster of what horses are all about, with activities including quizzes to learn new equestrian phrases and how horses communicate. There are also demonstrations on how to prepare for riding, horseback games to develop confidence and balance, a mini sports day, treasure hunts and much more!
​
We cater for all sizes and types of groups, so just get in touch and we’ll help you to create an experience to remember.  Contact us with your requirements info@cityofderryequestrian.com
