FAQs

Does every council accept equine therapy?

Not always, but many do — especially where there is clear evidence it supports the child’s outcomes.

 Can I request equine therapy if it’s not already listed in my child’s EHCP?

Yes. You can request a review and present evidence of how equine therapy meets your child’s needs.

What if the council refuses?

You have the right to appeal through the SEND Tribunal. Many parents succeed when they can show that equine therapy is meeting needs that school-based provision could not.
