How?
Our May journey across the Highlands saw 14 participants and 80 school children join from all walks of life. Some came for healing, others for escape - all for an adventure.
On this journey we raised over £7,000 for two local suicide prevention charities: Ewen’s Room and James Support Group - over double our original target!
From strangers to friends and family, this journey has been one of the most challenging and most bonding so far. Some came for healing, others for escape - all for an adventure. We then became one thing, coming together - across ages and backgrounds - to ensure the horses were safe and happy. Seeing the world through the eyes of the horse and placing a goal and a being beyond oneself - this creates community.
