<div>Creating Life-Changing Opportunities for Disabled Children, Adults and Our Wider Community
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are incredibly proud to announce that Rowntree CIC, a Community Interest Company dedicated to improving lives through equine-assisted wellbeing and support, has officially been granted planning permission to build our new Equine Therapy Centre in Nottingham.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Approved by Gedling Borough Council in October 2025, this exciting milestone brings us one step closer to creating a purpose-built, fully accessible and inclusive facility that will support disabled children, disabled adults, individuals with additional needs, and people experiencing mental health and wellbeing challenges across Nottinghamshire and the wider East Midlands.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Now, we need your help to make this vision a reality.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Who We Are:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Rowntree CIC is a Community Interest Company that exists to benefit the communities we serve. Our mission is to provide opportunities for people of all ages and abilities to experience the therapeutic benefits of working with and around horses.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are particularly passionate about ensuring that disabled children and adults have access to safe, meaningful and inclusive activities that promote confidence, independence, emotional wellbeing and social connection.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Through our work, we see every day how the unique bond between horses and people can have a profound impact on physical, emotional and mental wellbeing.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Why This Centre Is Needed:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Many disabled children and adults face barriers to accessing therapeutic activities, community services and inclusive environments.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Families often struggle to find facilities that are truly accessible, supportive and tailored to individual needs.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>At the same time, growing numbers of people are experiencing:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Mental health challenges
</div>
<div>Anxiety and depression
</div>
<div>Social isolation and loneliness
</div>
<div>Physical disabilities
</div>
<div>Learning disabilities and additional needs
</div>
<div>Low confidence and reduced wellbeing
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our Equine Therapy Centre will provide a dedicated space where people can feel valued, included and empowered while benefiting from the unique therapeutic connection with horses.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>What We Are Building:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Working alongside Nottingham-based specialists Property Design Studio, we have designed a centre that puts accessibility, inclusion and wellbeing at its heart.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The development will include:
</div>
<div>✓ Accessible equine therapy facilities
</div>
<div>✓ Purpose-built stables and horse care areas
</div>
<div>✓ Indoor therapy, learning and activity spaces
</div>
<div>✓ Safe and inclusive outdoor environments
</div>
<div>✓ Community wellbeing facilities
</div>
<div>✓ Spaces designed to support disabled children, disabled adults and individuals with additional support needs
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every aspect of the centre has been carefully planned to ensure it is welcoming, safe and accessible for everyone who uses it.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The Difference This Centre Will Make:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The new Rowntree Equine Therapy Centre will provide opportunities for:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Disabled children to build confidence, communication skills and independence.
</div>
<div>Disabled adults to access meaningful activities that promote wellbeing and social inclusion.
</div>
<div>Individuals experiencing mental health challenges to receive support in a calm and therapeutic environment.
</div>
<div>Families and carers to access community-focused support.
</div>
<div>Local schools, organisations and support groups to engage with inclusive wellbeing programmes.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This is not simply a building project.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It is an investment in people, opportunity and community.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>How Your Donation Will Help:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Receiving planning permission was a huge achievement, but there is still a long journey ahead.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Funds raised through this campaign will help support:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Site preparation and groundwork
</div>
<div>Construction of therapy and wellbeing facilities
</div>
<div>Stable and equine welfare infrastructure
</div>
<div>Accessibility adaptations and specialist equipment
</div>
<div>Indoor education and support spaces
</div>
<div>Community facilities and outdoor environments
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every pound donated will help us move closer to opening the doors of a centre that will provide life-changing opportunities for disabled children, disabled adults and the wider community.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Help Us Turn This Vision Into Reality
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For many people, horses offer more than companionship—they provide confidence, trust, emotional healing and a sense of freedom.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our goal is to create a place where everyone, regardless of ability or background, can experience those benefits.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With your support, we can build a centre that will serve our community for years to come, helping people overcome challenges, improve wellbeing and achieve their full potential.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please donate today and share our campaign with your friends, family, colleagues and local businesses.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Together, we can create something truly special.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every donation, no matter the size, helps bring this life-changing project one step closer to reality.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for supporting Rowntree CIC and believing in our vision.
