A BIT ABOUT US
Ambury Park Centre has developed programmes that include physiological and psychological therapies and educational, work training and social development. These are run from our beautiful park grounds, with our large indoor arena and our school for students aged 13 upwards as well as a full-time vocational training programme for adults 18 and over.
The Centre is a registered charity and is managed by a board. Staff members include the director/principal, a senior equine therapist, a riding instructor, an equine manager and stable assistant, teachers, teacher aides, a physiotherapist therapist, remedial therapy coaches, a vocational course supervisor and an office management team. Volunteers assist the full-time staff.
The Centre’s work could not be done without its herd of horses.
