The Lanark County Therapeutic Riding Program
What is therapeutic riding?
Therapeutic Riding is a unique and holistic approach to therapy, rehabilitation and recreation. The Lanark County Therapeutic Riding Program provides a safe environment introducing children and adults to the benefits and joys of the healing powers of the horse. The team consists of Instructors who are certified through the Canadian Therapeutic Riding Association, a consulting Physiotherapist who is trained in hippotherapy, enthusiastic volunteers who offer their expertise and caring and of course our wonderful horses!

The Lanark County Therapeutic Riding Program gratefully acknowledges the financial support of The Ontario Trillium Foundation, an agency of the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Recreation. With $100 million in annual funding from the provinces's charitable gaming initiative, the Foundation provides grants to eligible charitable and not-for-profit organizations in the arts, culture, sports, recreation, environments and social service sectors. We would also like to thank the Ministry of Tourism and Recreation as in 2005 the Therapeutic Riding Program was fortunate to receive a grant from the Ministry of Tourism and Recreation through Community Sport and Physical Activity: Communities in Action Fund. |
