Academy support Equine Therapy Center

13/08/2024

Aspiring young players coming through the Dragons Academy system recently supported the work of the Equine Therapy Center, based on the edge of the Bannau Brcheiniog National Park.

Players and staff visited the centre – as part of pre-season preparations – to discover more about the Monmouthshire center that is a pioneer in the field of therapeutic work with horses.

The mission of the community interest company is to be a centre of excellence in helping children and adults recover from trauma by working with horses. Equine Facilitated Therapy (EFT) is designed to bring about change on a somatic (body and mind) level. All EFT sessions have set goals including emotional self-regulation, creating healthy boundaries, understanding choices and consequences and self-care. People can better understand themselves by building and exploring a relationship with a horse, allowing them to learn strategies to live healthier lives.

A group of 20 players and staff attended the center for two and half hours to help with jobs around the complex.
