Peter Henderson Quotes
We act on behalf of 40 riding centres in Ontario... They offer horses to people with disabilities. It combines horseback riding with therapy, and it helps with balance, strength and muscles, and hand-eye co-ordination. It's like normal therapy, but they make it fun.

It's not the only answer, but it's just plain fun, and it's a motivator. If you enjoy it and your muscles are improving, it motivates you to work hard in other therapy.

We work with 4,000 people a year across Ontario, about 100 of those in Durham Region, And the centres use about 4,000 volunteers in total... It's usually a one-on-one relationship, and there's always at least one volunteer with a rider, sometimes three depending on the severity of their condition.
