Research

11 March 2010

Evaluation and research play an important role in exploring ways of improving our services.  Examples of this include:

• Benefits of Equine Assisted Learning

  • Exploring the Development and Use of Equine Assisted Personal Development for adults with a Mild/Moderate Intellectual Disability  
  •  
  • • Using TAG (teaching with acoustical guidance)  to support learning
    • Benefits of using a mechanical horse as a learning aid
    • Clicker Training with horses
    • Impact of horses wearing crossover bitless bridles

We will continue to increase our productivity, our service levels and standards – this is the only way we can ensure to be the continued success we are!
