Equine Partners CIO is a Registered Charity, Charity Number 1205130

Horses & Humans Journeying Together 

At Equine Partners, we believe that horses have a unique ability to help us see the world — and ourselves — in a different light. Through their calm presence and intuitive nature, they invite us to learn in a practical, hands-on way that’s both deeply meaningful and great fun.

​

We combine experiential equine learning, horsemanship, Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), and other therapeutic approaches in a unique way to support families, individuals, and groups as they navigate life’s challenges.

​

Our sessions help families dealing with a wide range of experiences, including:
Family breakdown, new step-parents, fostering, bereavement, domestic violence, school refusal, low self-esteem, anxiety, behavioural challenges, self-harm and suicidal thoughts (all ages), sexual exploitation, mental health issues, bullying, post-traumatic stress, elective mutism, attachment difficulties, and neurodiversity such as Autism, ADHD, ADD, Dyspraxia (DCD), PDA, Asperger’s, and Sensory Processing differences.

​

Unlike many Equine Assisted Learning providers, we don’t follow a set syllabus. Every session is tailored to the individual or family, allowing us to stay flexible and responsive to what’s needed on any given day. This approach ensures we can adapt as our clients grow, heal, and face new challenges — providing the right support as life unfolds.

​

In our Therapeutic Horsemanship Sessions, clients also have the option to work towards certificates and personal goals — a fun and rewarding way to celebrate progress and focused learning, always with room for flexibility and client lead choice.

​

Alongside our Family Equine Assisted Learning and Individual Therapeutic Horsemanship programmes, we offer a range of services designed to meet different needs, including:

​

  • 1-2-1 NLP coaching

  • Corporate and team-building days

  • Wellbeing and Nourishment days

  • School horsemanship programmes

  • In-schools training for Teachers and Parent Focus Groups

​

We are proud to be a West Sussex Alternative Learning Provider, supporting young people who thrive best through hands-on, relational learning experiences.

​

Equine Partners also offers a variety of volunteering opportunities for both teenagers and adults — a wonderful way to learn new skills, build confidence, and connect with our herd and community. Please get in touch to find out more.
