You are invited to visit our pioneering and unique service for vulnerable and troubled children and young people in the Scottish Borders. We teach them Life Skills through the Horse and his Environment. Stable Life offers an innovative programme where the horse and its surroundings stimulate, enhance and enable young people to reflect on the impact of their behaviour on themselves and others. We use horses and their environment as tools to help them develop a sense of self and learn transferable life skills enabling the young people to reach their full potential. We are the only organisation in Scotland that offers this type of assistance to at-risk young people. You will be able to tour the premises, observe a typical Stable Life session . It will also be chance to inspect our fabulous livery facilities, indoor and outdoor schools for hire, the Hut and to investigate the volunteering opportunities we
offer.
