Why use the centre?
Fort Centre offers a unique outlet for adults and children with
disabilities and learning difficulties through therapeutic riding.
Each one of the centre’s six horses has been handpicked for their
suitability to work in the therapeutic riding programme.
The services made available at Fort Centre are FREE of charge
and open to everyone who can benefit.
The benefits of therapeutic riding are well known and extensively
documented. In fact, therapeutic riding is recognised in many quarters
as one of the most progressive forms of therapy. The ability of the
rider to control the animal and themselves inspires untold self-
confidence, responsibility and teamwork.
Most importantly, working with horses offers the rider an exhilarating
and exciting experience which can create a special bond between the
rider and the horse.
