Personal Development through horsemanship
HorseBack UK inspires positive change, encourages confidence and self-esteem, and promotes recovery in an individual. Using horsemanship and outdoor activities, we deliver nationally accredited personal development and wellbeing programmes which offer our participants new coping strategies, life skills and the tools to build resilience.
HorseBack UK is a charity set up to empower service personnel and veterans suffering from life-changing injuries and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, and to aid them on their road to recovery.
The success of the first five years of courses for military personnel has allowed HorseBack UK to extend its remit and is now able to focus on the wider community.
Teenagers participate in a 15-day SQA Level 4 Certificate in Personal Development Through Horsemanship.
Over the past three years HorseBack UK has established a unique leadership and team building experience.
In the late summer of 2020 whilst chaos and fear reigned due to the COVID 19 pandemic Jock wanted to help those who had specifically been affected by it within the NHS and Care Home Systems.
We deliver the Team Programme, a twelve week course for young people between the ages of sixteen and twenty-five.

🏴 🤝 🏴 🐎 PROUD TO PARTNER. PROUD TO SERVE. 🐎 🇬🇧
For 18 years, HorseBack UK has used its specialist knowledge, lived experience and the power of horses to support the military and veteran community from all three services. It is the very reason our charity was established and is deeply engrained in our DNA. With former military personnel within our own ranks at the charity, we understand this community, because we are part of it!
We’re extremely proud to formalise our partnership with the Armed Forces Equine Charity, bringing together the experience, skills and expertise of both organisations.
Following a fantastic programme this past week and three earlier in the year, we’re now looking forward to delivering nine more wellbeing programmes for serving personnel and veterans across AFEC Equestrian Centres, within the next 6 months. With the horses, as always, at the heart of the learning.
Proud to serve those who serve, and those who have served 🫡 🏴 🏴 🏴
