Ivybridge

Officially opened on Friday 29th June 2007, we are situated in Filham Park, an established popular amenity for the local community in Ivybridge. Set in the beautiful Devon countryside, our centre is easily accessible, enabling us to provide donkey riding therapy for special needs children throughout the south-west areas of the country.

Around 150 children with special needs and disabilities from 30 local schools in the city and surrounding areas benefit from donkey riding therapy at this Centre each week.
