Why is it called "The Happiness Horsebox"?
The original idea was to help riders with disabilities mount horses easily, with all the facilities needed..... Then we adapted the design to offer a private space where people could meet beautiful horses and enjoy being out in the countryside again
It is, of course, mobile! We support people with disabilities to enjoy a safe space at events or days out in the beautiful countryside of the North Wessex Downs and Oxfordshire. As part of our not for profit service we visit residents in care homes and hospices and help para equestrians compete.
Core Services
Visits to Care Homes & Hospices
Equine-assisted therapy has been shown to provide numerous benefits. Now, our private space ensures sensitive conversations, with the horses staying safely contained and relaxed in their area. We create a truly memorable experience.
