Family Development Programme
A Unique and Successful Approach to Family Work
Ponies can reflect our emotions, energy, and intentions with complete honesty, offering families the chance to see themselves and each other in a new light. In learning how to communicate with a pony, families also learn how to communicate with one another – calmly, clearly, and respectfully.
Stronger Bonds, Happier Homes
We believe the foundation of a thriving family lies in clear communication, mutual respect, trust, and genuine understanding. Our Family Development Programme gives parents, carers, and children the tools to nurture these foundations—through the unique and transformative experience of working alongside ponies in our family horsemanship programmes.
ponies can help you:
Support your child’s well-being
Learn strategies to help children feel calmer, more confident, and more in control, both at home and in the wider world.
Communicate without conflict
Discover how intention, energy, and body language shape every interaction, leading to greater empathy and understanding.
Grow
together
Through hands-on experiences with ponies, families develop problem-solving skills, emotional resilience, and self-awareness that last a lifetime.
Support Shaped Around You
No two families are the same, so neither is our approach. We offer flexible support tailored to individual needs:
Parent and carer groups – Supportive, guided sessions to explore new ways of connecting and communicating.
Private family sessions – Bespoke, one-to-one support for addressing specific challenges and building stronger relationships.
