Help us build London’s only purpose-built Equine Therapy Centre
In 2022, the lease on our home for the last 10 years was terminated. Leaving our horses homeless and our young people without a means to the emotional support they rely on.
Thankfully Barnet Council stepped in and gave us a permanent lease on a derelict stable yard in Barnet. We have completed phase 1 of the build for London’s first dedicated Equine Therapy Centre which opened in Spring 2023. We are grateful to have a permanent home but have a long way to go to finish the build!

The new SLTH site:
Barnet Council have give us a long term lease on a derelict stable yard in High Barnet. It is a beautiful site rich with nature and easily accessible by public transport. It was however derelict and unsafe for use.
Phase 1
We have successfully upgraded the site to create a usable space for our horses, young people and staff. Including:
A brand new 60 x 30 arena sponsored by Barnet Council & Ascot Racecourse
Water, electricity and internet connections
3 portacabin classrooms and offices
Temporary disabled accessible toilet block
Car Park
Fenced-in paddocks
Rubbish removal
Derelict buildings boarded up and patched up to make them safe
The site is now in full use and is a god send! However we have no stables for the horses or sheltered space for young people to work with horses in bad weather.
Unfortunately we fell just short of raising the funds required to complete the site build and had to take out a loan for £70,000 to cover this shortfall. The repayments of which are taking away from funds required to deliver support for young people. We need help in raising this money.
Phase 2
To complete our vision of creating London’s only purpose-built equine-assisted therapy centre we will need to raise a further £300,000 to construct buildings for our horses and young people to use:
A barn and stable block
Permanent Classrooms & Offices
Field Shelters
Sensory Spaces
Full Disabled Access
Rewilding of additional land
