Equi-Power is an award-winning independent charity and member group of the Riding for the Disabled Association serving Central Scotland.
We believe in the power of horses to transform lives! Our therapeutic and competitive activities are for children and adults with additional support needs.
Based on a quiet livery yard in Sauchenford, we provide a safe and welcoming environment for people of all ages to experience the benefits of being around horses. Our activities are known to improve physical and emotional well-being and promote skills development. Most importantly of all, we have fun!
We provide Riding, Equestrian Vaulting, Horse Care, Equine Facilitated Learning, mental health support and dementia-friendly Tea With a Pony sessions, as well as creative and social events.
Volunteers are a vital part of the team and there is a role for everyone, from helping with sessions and horsecare to fundraising, events and professional support. Come and join us!
We rely on fundraising and the generosity of donors and funders to help cover our costs. There are lots of easy ways to support us, from donating directly to sponsored events and shopping online

Read our Impact Report for 2024!
2024 was a very busy year for Equi-Power, and we are delighted to finally share this Impact Report highlighting the achievements of our participants, coaches and volunteers with you.
Throughout the year we faced a few challenges with the health of our horses, and difficult weather conditions affected our Tea With A Pony service, but nonetheless we managed to increase the number of sessions provided and introduced 2 new activities - Family Fun Days and Play & Pony Rides.
We welcomed 3 new coaches to the team, and delivered therapeutic, educational and recreational sessions to 166 participants. Our wonderful team of dedicated volunteers delivered a whopping 1926 hours of their time.
Our grateful thanks go to the funders for their financial support during the period, and everyone who played a part in helping us to achieve, grow, and deliver the best possible service for our participants.
