The Haven Opens it's Doors

The Haven - Success Story

In December, The Haven not only opened its doors to young people but also became home to a wonderful group of ponies and horses.

These animals have quickly become a cherished part of the home, offering companionship and support to the children and young people in our care.

Interacting with the horses has provided invaluable opportunities for building confidence around animals, fostering a sense of responsibility, and developing essential life skills.

Through daily care routines – such as feeding, grooming, and exercising – the young people learn the importance of commitment and teamwork.

Beyond practical skills, the presence of these animals has also encouraged social interaction, as the children work together to meet the horses’ needs. The experience has inspired everyone to spend more time outdoors, taking full advantage of the vast open spaces at The Haven while enjoying the therapeutic benefits of nature.

We are especially excited to welcome a very special new resident soon—Mojo! A two-time winner at Cheltenham, Mojo will be joining our growing family, bringing a touch of racing history to The Haven. We can’t wait to see the joy and inspiration he brings to everyone here!
