Learn2Ride with ILEAP and RDA : Spring Term 2025: Ages 8+ years: 4.15pm - 5.15pm

Our popular horse-riding session is back.

You must book for the whole term as you will be weighed and measured and allocated a horse at the first session, they cannot weigh people after the first session, so if you are looking to book after 11/02/25, please email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..  The first session of each term is a mechanical horse assessment.

ILEAP has teamed up with the Riding for Disabled HQ at Lowlands for an after-school club to build your confidence around our equine friends whilst learning to ride.  

The group of 6 is split into two smaller groups, each taking turns to ride in the manage.  Beginners will be on guide ropes and each horse has a volunteer to support the participants. As they gain experience and confidence, participants will learn the techniques of steering, trotting and cantering.

Research has suggested that spending time with animals in an outdoor environment is beneficial to mental health and wellbeing.

Please wear long trousers and long -sleeved jackets.  The riding school can provide hats and boots for you to wear, although you are welcome to bring your own.
