Equi-Power Christmas Gift Packs

Aim

Christmas gifting is easy with our new Pony Packs. A meaningful present to make someone's day and help #StartSomethingSpecial for the future

Hi! We are Equi-Power - an independent charity and member group of Riding for the Disabled. 

We believe in the power of horses to transform lives! 

We offer a range of therapeutic activities for children and adults with additional support needs to support their physical and emotional well-being, develop new skills, and have fun!

We currently operate from a temporary base - which we love! - with just 3 horses, 3 coaches, and a very small number of sessions.

We want to help more people. We are fundraising to build a new centre for central Scotland that will allow us to expand our service, benefit more people, and help meet the need for accessible facilities for disabled people in our community.

Read our full story and all about our Crowd Fund

Buying one of our Christmas Gift Packs for your loved one will boost our Crowd Fund, let us get started with the build, and reach more people who need our services.

Angel's Sparkly Unicorn Pack

Laddie's Cuddly Cob Pack

Dana's Lucky Dip (3 items chosen at random, plus Dana photo and factsheet)

The proceeds from every Christmas Gift Pack purchased will go straight into our crowd fund and help us achieve our goal of a new, inclusive and accessible RDA centre for everyone to enjoy.

This is what our participants and their carers tell us:

"Our visits to EQUI-POWER have been hugely enjoyable for our pupils and the benefits have been immense.  For pupils with conditions like ASD being around a horse seems to have a fundamental impact on how they socialise and interact with others.  There is growing evidence that human-animal interventions can improve emotional health and social wellness in children, particularly those with autism spectrum disorder.  The calming effect that our pupils experience whilst at EQUI-POWER cannot be overstated. Indeed the transformation has to be seen to be believed." (Local primary school)

“My daughter's physical and mental well-being have benefitted from riding and vaulting. During lockdown this has been seriously affected. It has improved my daughter’s confidence, strength, balance and skill set”

“My child is a different boy around the horses, I can see the anxiety lift”

“Riding has helped a lot with my cerebral palsy and helped me become stronger”

Your purchase of a Pony Gift pack will help us continue to provide these life-enhancing sessions to more people across the Central Belt. Our waiting list is getting longer by the week - the demand for health and wellbeing support has never been greater. 

Please note - Christmas Gift Packs available for UK delivery only.
