Jigsaw was established in 2001 by Sue and Tim Carr.
Jigsaw is a special place that has been evolving for the last 12
years.
Jigsaw has a 20acre, eco-friendly site with 12 special horses and
very special people.
The
objectives of the charity are:
To provide relief and good quality care for horses and ponies that would
otherwise be put to sleep.
To provide facilities and activities to advance the education of the public
relating to the care, riding and welfare of horses and ponies.
To promote good health of the public at large.
In 2007 we secured grants through the SITA trust and Lancashire County
Council, and a loan from the Rosebud Scheme, to advance our training facilities
in order to further enhance our horses wellbeing and to reach a wider spectrum
of the public. These facilities include an outdoor training area, and a
mechanical horse which provides an innovative and unique training opportunity.
Jigsaw uses classical training methods to create aids that a rider can deliver
kindly and clearly to create a perfect harmony between horse and rider. The
classical training method firmly believes that riding is an art and not a
discipline.
How Jigsaw can help you??
We offer a relaxed and calm atmosphere where people can learn about horses and
nature in a safe, friendly and fun environment.
Lessons at Jigsaw can benefit all members of the public whether a beginner or
advanced rider...there is something for everybody!
Individual training programmes can be developed to ensure that optimum results
are achieved from every lesson.
