Personal Development through horsemanship
HorseBack UK inspires positive change, encourages confidence and self-esteem, and promotes recovery in an individual. Using horsemanship and outdoor activities, we deliver nationally accredited personal development and wellbeing programmes which offer our participants new coping strategies, life skills and the tools to build resilience.
HorseBack UK is a charity set up to empower service personnel and veterans suffering from life-changing injuries and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, and to aid them on their road to recovery.
The success of the first five years of courses for military personnel has allowed HorseBack UK to extend its remit and is now able to focus on the wider community.
Teenagers participate in a 15-day SQA Level 4 Certificate in Personal Development Through Horsemanship.
Over the past three years HorseBack UK has established a unique leadership and team building experience.
In the late summer of 2020 whilst chaos and fear reigned due to the COVID 19 pandemic Jock wanted to help those who had specifically been affected by it within the NHS and Care Home Systems.
We deliver the Team Programme, a twelve week course for young people between the ages of sixteen and twenty-five.

👏 Former Aboyne Academy pupil steps back into the ring for HorseBack UK! 🥊
We’re incredibly proud of young Peter Anthony Cowie, who first came to HorseBack UK several years ago through the Schools Personal Development Course. Since then, he’s continued to push himself, grow, and take on new challenges.
On Saturday, Peter will be boxing at the Beach Ballroom, Aberdeen in the Ultra White Collar Boxing Event. He began training in April, won his very first fight in June, and is now returning for his second bout — this time raising vital funds for HorseBack UK. 🥊🐴
Peter embodies resilience, determination, and the spirit of our programme. We’d love your support in cheering him on and helping him reach his fundraising goal.
👉 Please share and donate if you can:

Thank you — and best of luck, Peter! 💙🏆
