Tea with a Pony

What is Tea With a Pony?

 

Tea With a Pony is a gentle, one‑hour enrichment activity designed for older adults, people living with dementia, and/or individuals with physical or learning disabilities. The session offers relaxed, low‑pressure interaction with our horses in a calm, fully accessible environment.

 

Participants can enjoy:

 

• A raised seating area with clear views of the horses

• Warm drinks, refreshments, and optional craft activities

• A friendly, social atmosphere with our trained staff and volunteers

• The opportunity (for those who wish) to safely stroke the horses behind a barrier

 

After meeting the horses, groups are welcome to finish their teas or enjoy a packed lunch.
