We are currently looking for people aged 18+ to help with horse care at our equine therapy provision. Horse experience is useful but not essential!

Help us to help others at The Heard Therapy CIC!


We are a supportive community dedicated to providing professional mental health services alongside horses, in nature, based near Ilminster.


A volunteering shift is approx 2 hours in the morning or 1 hour in the afternoon. Tasks include re-filling hay nets, bringing our 5 horses into the yard for their feed, poo picking our track system, grooming, tidying the yard etc


Volunteering shifts can be on a weekly or fortnightly basis - ideally on the same day each time to help us with planning.


An induction and training will be provided.
