At The Holistic Horse and Pony Centre in beautiful Ockham, Surrey, we provide an extensive range of holistic riding lesson packages. We have over 30 years of experience in this field. Wendy is a pioneer in the practice and teaching of the holistic approach to horse riding. Currently, Wendy is the only riding instructor in the UK to have a Teaching Diploma in Practical Metaphysics. Her approach to ‘Holistic Riding’ has also been covered in many magazines, national press and radio stations including Radio 4’s ‘All in the Mind’. Wendy’s unusual blend of qualifications, personal experiences, compassion and humour allows her to teach, guide and inspire others to be more confident in their riding and to enjoy their relationship with their horses.

Help us Raise some Funds!



The Holistic Horse and Pony Centre is home to Healing Hearts and Minds with Horses CIC, where we focus on assisting stressed and struggling teenagers. Our sanctuary, nestled in the beautiful Surrey countryside, provides a safe space for them to find solace in nature alongside our 28 horses.

Unfortunately, we've faced recent challenges. Severe storms and floods have caused significant damage, and on top of that, a deceitful trader absconded with nearly 10k intended for fencing. Our funds are dangerously low, especially with the prolonged wet winter increasing the horses' feed and hay requirements.

In light of this, we humbly ask for your support in restoring our premises. This will ensure the horses have secure fields to roam and the teenagers have a safe space for their healing journey. As a token of gratitude, any donations received will be matched by us, enabling us to offer complimentary sessions to teenagers lacking funding for HEART Equine-Assisted therapy.

With your help, more teenagers can experience emotional healing and lead fulfilling lives. We've secured a favorable agreement with local tradesmen for the restoration work, and any surplus funds will go towards accommodating even more individuals. Restoring the center will not only allow us to resume workshops but also continue supporting local families. We genuinely appreciate your understanding and consideration in this challenging time.



Thank you sincerely from the bottom of our hearts.
