SENIORS N SADDLES
Assisted Living Outreach Program
Seniors N Saddles is one of HOPE's community outreach programs for senior citizens living in local assisted living homes. This program is designed to get seniors out and active while enhancing overall level of enjoyment.
During their visit participants are introduced to the HOPE horses and have the opportunity to explore, connect, and bond with the horses. Some prefer to only observe and watch the horses and others interacting and that is perfectly fine too! The benefits include increased peace, pleasure, confidence, connection, strength and stamina while reducing stress, agitation, and isolation. Having an opportunity to bond with the horses is a very powerful and memorable experience. Our HOPE family, including volunteers and clients, are encouraged to participate!
Seniors N Saddles activities you may choose from include:
Grooming Feeding Treats Observe the Herd Equifit
Leading Horse Painting Nature Sit Spot Yoga
Therapeutic Riding Games Mindfulness/Journaling Equine Care
FEE: This program is solely donation based. HOPE is thankful for any donation amount your facility would like to give! HOPE has several sponsor levels if your organization is interested in making your donation count towards a Sponsorship! Our sponsors allow HOPE to grow, provide care for our horses and offset the costs for participants while promoting health and wellness through therapeutic, education and recreational activities with horses.
