Ebony Horse Club
About this yard
Ebony Horse Club is a unique community equestrian charity based in Brixton, operating within the London Borough of Lambeth. Founded to use horses to raise the education, wellbeing, and aspirations of young people from disadvantaged backgrounds, the club holds British Horse Society approval. The centre stables up to nine horses and includes a riding arena, paddock, classroom, and changing facilities.
This is not a general public-booking venue. The club works on a membership basis, open specifically to young people aged 8 to 18 (up to 25 for those with SEND) who live within two miles of the club, with priority given to those most in need of support. Prospective members apply by contacting the club directly rather than booking a lesson online. The programme combines riding lessons in dressage, show jumping, and cross country with structured youth work support, a young volunteer scheme, and the broader RIDE programme.
