We are absolutely delighted to announce that Carl Hester has joined us as an official Ambassador of SLTH. It’s been a real privilege to get to know Carl over the past seven months, and we are so grateful for his support.

We are celebrating Volunteers’ Week here at SLTH. Thank you to all our volunteers. Wanda is one of our stars. INSPIRING. REWARDING. EXCEPTIONAL. That’s how Wanda describes her time at SLTH.

With over 50 years of experience around horses, Wanda thought she’d seen it all. But volunteering here has opened up a whole new chapter — one filled with purpose, connection and impact.

“I’ve never experienced anything quite like what I’ve seen here,” she says. “It goes above and beyond — for both the horses and the young people.”

We’re lucky to have Wanda as part of the team.

Thank you for everything …

Healing Horses

At our dedicated stables in Edgware, North London, we see between 250 and 300 young people each year, helping them to overcome mental health, learning disability or behavioural challenges through working with horses on our Equine Therapy, Education and Work Experience programmes. We also run an After School Club and hold day camps in school holidays.

Last year, 52% of our clients had Special Educational Needs and 46% had either current or past Safeguarding involvement. With our help, 89% said that their confidence had increased and 82% felt that their communication skills had improved.

Mohammed is a typical success story:

“Mohammed has been attending an education course this term with his school. Mohammed has an autism diagnosis, various mental health diagnoses and a registered physical disability. At school his anxiety was crippling him, he wasn't attending classes and had no relationships with other students. On his first day with us his school staff and other students all treated Mohammed as though he was less capable than the others due to his disability and anxiety. The teachers jumped to help him and give him support before he'd had a chance to attempt a task himself and the students did things for him instead of waiting and letting Mohammed have a go. Mohammed accepted this help in a withdrawn and depressed way without any protest.
