We provide the wellbeing benefits of access to horses to those who wouldn't otherwise have the opportunity. Stepney Bank Stables Equestrian and Activity Club (EAC) is an inner-city project working with horses as part of the team to help young people develop across a broad spectrum of personal and social skills such as resilience, confidence, positive self-esteem and employability skills. The EAC welcomes youngsters aged between 8 and 18 to take part in a range of activities such as workshops, tackling issues like bullying, county lines, and healthy relationships, in addition to team building events and excursions. As well as all of this, they also help look after the horses for the British Horse Society approved riding school and help Instructors with lessons. All of the activities are run by a team of well-qualified, enthusiastic equestrian and youth staff who take pride in seeing the club members blossom under their care. The EAC has been recognised multiple times including the Queen’s Jubilee Award. The riding school has a range of well-mannered horses and ponies who work with our superb, qualified instructors to help our customers learn all about how to ride. There are also opportunities to undertake Association of British Riding School and British Horse Society qualifications and some of our young people take part in external competitions.

A Saturday FULL of carrot enrichment 🥕🐴

Enrichment is a great way to keep horses mentally stimulated, encourage natural foraging behaviours, and add a little variety and enjoyment to their day. 🧡

Today we say thank you to Bella and Happy Horse Day to our Centre Lead Emma!

Emma was quick to fall in love with beautiful Bella when she joined the staff team. When it became clear that Bella wasn’t really enjoying work in the school and would prefer a hacking home, Emma reorganised her life to make space for Bella with her. Since Emma already has Bella the Labrador why not build a family of Bella’s?!

Bella (horse) has been a joy to care for and we look forward to hearing about her next adventures with Emma 🤍🖤

❔What does inclusion mean to you?

This National Inclusion Week, we're sharing what inclusion means to our team.

🐴 Sam, Strategic Lead for Projects and Programmes, was inspired by the words of Stepney Bank Stables:

💬 "Inclusion is about creating spaces where everyone feels welcome, valued and able to be themselves.

It’s having a place where you feel you belong.

It’s being accepted for who you are. It’s finding your confidence and your voice.

It’s making connections — with horses, with people and with your community."

This week is a reminder that horses are for everyone.
