Funding will be used to provide inclusive equestrian activities to disadvantaged and vulnerable children in North Nottinghamshire and North East Derbyshire. In addition, Riding for Smiles will also strengthen itself through organisational development activities. Bespoke one-hour sessions for primary school-aged children for a minimum of 12 weeks will be delivered. Activities will be designed to develop skills for improving mental health. Children will be encouraged to converse with each other and with staff, asking questions, describing their feelings and working together.
