Providing support, direct to you,  with Tiny Hooves on Tour

Bring the wonder of the stable directly to your door with Tiny Hooves on Tour. Our specially trained miniature therapy ponies are more than just a charming sight; they are ambassadors of joy and calm, providing a unique, hands-on animal experience that bridges the gap between entertainment and emotional support.

Whether we are visiting a school to support neurodiverse students, brightening the day of residents in a care home, or adding a touch of magic to a community fete, our ponies offer a gentle, ground-based connection that leaves a lasting impact. Fully licensed, insured, and “indoor ready” with specialized nappy bags, we provide a professional and seamless service that transforms any setting into a place of therapeutic discovery.

Lead facilitator Lucy is a trained Equine-Assisted Therapist who already works closely with CAMHS and Children’s Services in Lincoln. Our ponies are fully licensed, insured, and specially trained to provide a calm, non-judgmental environment that fosters emotional resilience and mental health support for young children.

Bringing Comfort to Care Homes and Adult Support Centres

We offer the No Reins Equine-Assisted Therapy experience on the road, delivering ground-based connection directly to care homes and adult support centers. Our therapy ponies are “indoor ready,” equipped with specialized nappy bags to allow for bedside visits or group sessions in communal lounges.

By interacting with our gentle miniature ponies, residents can experience the immediate emotional feedback and calming presence that only horses can provide. This unique service is designed to support emotional well-being and provide a meaningful, therapeutic encounter for clients on-site.

Our Social Heart Model — Healing for the Community

No Reins operates as a non-profit Community Interest Company (CIC) with a dedicated “social heart” model. This means that when you book a private session, your proceeds directly fund our specialist work within the community.

Specifically, these bookings allow us to provide free therapeutic visits to hospices and care homes, bringing the peaceful and healing nature of ponies to those in end-of-life care or facing life-limiting conditions.

We believe this comfort should be accessible to everyone, free of charge, when they need it most. If you run a hospice and would like to discuss free visits, please get in touch below.

Our Social Heart Promise:

As a non-profit Community Interest Company, your private booking directly enables us to provide free therapeutic visits to hospices and those receiving end-of-life or life-limiting care. We are dedicated to bringing comfort to those who need it most, free of charge. If you run a hospice or care facility and would like to arrange a visit, please contact us below to discuss availability.
