Just a reminder that our next indoor 1-to-1 clinic for young or nervous horses who need a confidence boost in a calm, sheltered environment will be taking place on Sunday 7th December.

These sessions will focus on:

• Spook-busting techniques
• In-hand exercises over obstacles
• Trust and confidence building

Using the same techniques we use with our therapy horses.

This is an ideal opportunity to build/maintain a bond with your horse and keep them stimulated and engaged over winter, in a safe, supportive space. Each session will be tailored to suit you and your horse’s needs.

Sessions cost £25, which is payable in advance via BACS. Session fees will be used to support projects at Inspired Equine Assisted Learning CIC.

Spaces will be limited with only 5 x 45-minute sessions per afternoon, so message us to book your slot or find out more!

Here are the details of our Christmas Pony Club, please message if you’d like to book in as spaces are limited🎄☃️

I turned 65 on November 7th and this milestone has me reflecting on a decade of running Inspired Equine Assisted Learning CIC, and the many lessons learned from horses, humans, and the spaces in between.

I’ve seen how powerful experiential learning can be, not just for children and young people, but for all of us navigating change, challenge, and growth.

At 65, I’m more committed than ever to:
- Championing inclusive, accessible mental health support
- Challenging systems that focus on symptoms instead of root causes
- Using humour, horses, and a bit of stubbornness to keep pushing for change

And yes, funding remains a challenge. Despite a decade of proven impact, we’ve seen how short-term thinking and shifting priorities can leave vital projects vulnerable. So we’re exploring new income streams:
- Offering corporate training and leadership workshops
- Launching consultancy services to help funders improve grant processes
- Partnering with local businesses who want to invest in community wellbeing

If you’re interested in collaborating, commissioning, or just having a conversation, I’d love to hear from you.

Thank you to everyone who’s been part of this journey so far. The next chapter? It’s obviously going to feature horses, heart, and a whole lot of hope.

Curious about how horses can help children thrive? We’re kicking off the new year with a FREE 2-hour Equine Assisted Learning (EAL) demonstration event, exclusively for Head Teachers, Teachers, and Teaching Assistants who want to explore how EAL supports pupils of all ages and abilities.

You’ll get to see and experience for yourself how our horses help children build confidence, emotional regulation, communication, and resilience, especially those facing barriers to learning.

The session will showcase our tailored Interventions for School Children, designed to complement existing SEND and pastoral support in schools.

Whether you’re new to EAL or curious about integrating it into your setting, this is your chance to witness the impact in action, and ask all the questions you’ve been meaning to.

More details about the date and how to register will be announced soon.

Well, this was unexpected… We’ve just received an email saying that Inspired Equine Assisted Learning CIC has been shortlisted as one of the Top 10 Corporate Online Training Companies for 2025 by the editorial team behind the upcoming edition of HR Outlook.

Apparently, a panel of veterans and thought leaders has carefully studied firms in the Corporate Online Training sector, and after detailed assessment, shortlisted a few, including us. The twist? We don’t offer any online training. Not a webinar, not a module, not even a downloadable worksheet.

What we do offer is experiential, equine-assisted leadership and wellbeing training, in muddy boots, not mouse clicks. Our horses don’t do Zoom, but they do deliver powerful, real-time insight into communication, trust, and emotional intelligence.

28/10/2025

If you’re looking for something to do tomorrow (Wednesday 29th) we still have a couple spaces left in our Halloween kids session! £15 per child 5+ years, younger siblings can join in for £5 with an accompanying adult. Starts at 10am and finishes at 12.
Please message us to book! 👻🎃
Toffee can’t wait to see you all!

The clocks have gone back, the evenings are darker, and for many, that means the symptoms of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) start to creep in. But here’s the good news: working outdoors with our horses can be a powerful way to lift your mood and reconnect with yourself.

Our equine-assisted sessions offer gentle movement, fresh air, and emotional connection, all proven to help reduce anxiety and low mood. Horses respond to your energy, not your words, creating a calm, non-judgemental space where you can reset and feel seen. And being outside in natural light, even on cloudy days, helps regulate your body’s rhythms and boost serotonin.

We’re here in Fosdyke and Runcton Holme near King’s Lynn, offering sessions designed to support wellbeing through the winter months. If you or someone you know is feeling the weight of the season, reach out, we’d love to welcome you for a trial session to show you how our horses can help.

Our Story

Spending time with our horses will positively and permanently change your life! Equine Assisted Learning (EAL) is a unique learning experience that uses horses as active participants; it does not involve riding and no prior experience with horses is required. Our horses make perfect learning partners as their natural responses provide immediate and honest feedback to your actions and behaviour giving you a deeper understanding of yourself.

Inspired Equine Assisted Learning is a not-for-profit Community Interest Company specialising in Equine Assisted Learning activities and Therapeutic Horsemanship, which benefits a wide range of adults and children, including those with behavioural challenges, mental health problems, and learning difficulties. Therapeutic work with horses has been shown to improve mental and emotional wellbeing, physical skills and enhance communication and relationship skills. We offer private and group sessions on a long or short-term basis. For an informal chat or to arrange a visit please message Mike on this page or email info@inspired-eal.co.uk or call 07729 909186. We look forward to working with you.

Are you looking for something completely different and fun to do with your family? Do you struggle to compete with Social Media, TV and Video games?

Let our horses help! Inspired Equine Assisted Learning has a unique approach to building communication, leadership and team building skills - and your most important team is the one you share your life with at home? Join us for a fun session and discover what really makes your family tick. We’ll customise a unique experience for your family that will help improve communication, understanding and respect, and we’ll deliver it in a unique and unforgettable way, using our horses to guide you.

Our EAL + NLP Company Away Days are positively fun and positively productive!

Collaboration vs. Competition - Many team events are based on competition, but you really want all your team to work TOGETHER like a well-oiled machine! You don’t have to like every member of your team, but if you can communicate and understand one another then your team will be unstoppable!

At Inspired Equine Assisted Learning every experiential training session helps to develop effective skills in a fun and memorable way.

Our corporate Away-Days allow employees to spend quality time together to discuss ideas, issues and information in an environment that encourages innovation and creative thinking.

Inspired Equine Assisted Learning is a not-for-profit Community Interest Company. The fees we receive from corporate training help us to offer subsidised EAL sessions to disadvantaged people, living with various conditions in our community who can really benefit from EAL but don’t have the resources to pay for sessions themselves.

Horses Helping To Improve Care Home Residents Happiness

Last year, we took two of our ponies, Toffee and Pepsi, to meet residents at local care homes in South Lincolnshire. We received very positive feedback from the sessions, with residents eagerly looking forward to the arrival of the ponies and participating in the sessions. Residents asked lots of questions about the ponies with some reminiscing about riding and farming with horses. There was also anecdotal evidence that significantly more residents actively participated and enjoyed the innovative EAL sessions than take part in some of the other regular activities that are provided for them.
