We're excited to launch our campaign 'Gather and graze for good'. It's the perfect excuse to gather friends (humans and horses) together to enjoy some tasty treats and raise money to help children in the greatest need. For more info and to sign-up: ridehigh.org/gg4g.

Week 5 of our programme for the children from Afghan refugee families living in MK: Today we made the most of the sunny weather to take them out on a gentle led-hack around Loughton – we saw lots of smiles as they got ready to set off!

The Afghan refugee children returned to Ride High today for their 4th session with the ponies & we saw lots of smiles despite the rainy weather ❤
Spending time with our ponies is something positive to look forward to & learning new skills helps build confidence

Thank you to the @NatStudTraining & The National Horse Racing Museum for hosting a careers event for the @RideHighMK students last week!
They had a tour, learned about #equestriancareers and discovered how #racehorses are retrained after their racing careers have ended...
