🌟 An exciting new project for our Health Pathway students! 🌟

Last week, our students officially began an exciting year-long project with their project horse, Blossom. 🐴💚

Working alongside three industry professionals, they’ll be supporting Blossom’s development throughout the academic year, with a focus on improving her overall health, wellbeing and performance.

They’ll be working closely with:
🦴 Amie from Amore Physiotherapy – physiotherapy
🥕 Rachel from Saracens – nutrition
🐴 Ross from Rosca Horsemanship – behaviour

The professionals visited last week for Blossom’s initial assessments, helping the students establish targets, exercises and areas to work on over the first eight weeks. Every eight weeks, they’ll return to review Blossom’s progress and set new goals.

Each student has their own project diary to record weekly progress, changes, exercises and any setbacks along the way. They’ll also be creating regular vlogs to document the journey and share what they’re learning.

We can’t wait to follow Blossom’s transformation over the year! 🥰 And what an achievement it will be for our students to look back and see the difference they have helped to make.

It’s also a fantastic opportunity for them to work alongside real industry professionals, develop their practical skills and gain valuable experience of the collaborative approach used within the equine industry.

We’re excited to see where this journey takes them! ✨
