Horse Riding is back in Teddington
Park Lane Stables are back in their original home and we're delighted to have four sessions with them in the Christmas holidays.
PLEASE NOTE: THESE SESSIONS ARE BOTH FOR CHILDREN WITH ADDITIONAL NEEDS AND THEIR SIBLINGS. FAMILIES MAY TAKE PART TOGETHER.
The activities they take part in will include riding as well as stable yard duties such as grooming, feeding, filling haynets, bedding and lots of pony loving.
*Please only book one session*
*The team at the stables have asked us to let all attendees know to wear long trousers while at the stables and when accompanying the riders in the surrounding area due to tics and the risk of Lymes Disease. Thank you*
Please follow our Fair Access Policy: If your child took part in this activity in the last school holidays, please do not book for this school holiday. If you think your child might not be able to attend, please do not book. There is such a lot of interest in this activity, that we need to give other families a chance to book. You can put your child's name on the waiting list and we will contact you if a space becomes available.
A waiting list will be set up when all sessions are booked. The waiting list can be found here: Waiting list
This activity is offered free of charge but comes at significant cost to Skylarks. If you can, please make a donation. We suggest a donation of £15 for this activity.
*You will need to complete Park Lane Stables' Rider registration form before your child takes part in this activity. Your child will not be able to ride unless the form is completed*

Parents are asked to stay nearby.
Children need to wear clothes they do not mind getting dirty. They do not need any experience with horses but they must not be afraid of horses. Children with experience of horses are of course welcome to attend.
We need to try to make booking this popular activity as fair as possible, to allow as many children as possible to join in. So we are putting the following conditions in place:
Please do not book more than one session for your child. If you would like to book a second session, put your name on the waiting list and if there are more spaces available you will be contacted.
If you need to cancel, please give at least 48 hours notice. If you give less than 48 hours notice, you may not be able to book another session.
PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT PARK LANE STABLES DIRECTLY AND PLEASE DO NOT JUST TURN UP ON THE DAY IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A BOOKING.
In order for your child to take part, you will need to agree to the following statements:
I understand that being near horses is a RISK sport and holds a potential danger and that horses may react unpredictably on occasions. I understand that my child could be injured - I accept that risk.
I understand that wearing boots may reduce the severity of any injury should an accident happen. I agree that my child will always wear strong boots whilst around horses and will not be allowed to take part without these.
I understand that instructions are given for my own safety and I/my child must therefore obey the instructions of the instructor/riding centre staff and must comply with the Health & Safety requirements of Park Lane Stables.
I understand that Park Lane Stables may refuse my request to take part for safety or operational reasons.
I understand that without my consent my child will not be eligible to take part in sessions at Park Lane Stables.
I understand and agree to Skylarks passing on necessary personal details to the third party provider of this course
