Practitioners in NI
Below is a list of practitioners and groups currently providing a range of equine assisted services in Northern Ireland. This list of practitioners has been compiled of practitioners with whom we have been in contact, involved or been informed of. In preparation of these resources, we have ensured that all those listed have capacity for new clients. Therefore, this list is not exhaustive of all sources of EAS in NI.
This resource is for informative purposes only. We are not in a position, nor do we claim, to ascertain the governance, qualifications, experiences etc., of those listed. Practitioner choice is at the discretion of the client or parent/guardian. However, one way the status on the above topics could be explored is via EAS registers.
