Strength & Learning through Horses
- SLTH is an equine assisted therapy charity based in North London led by clinical psychologists and chaired by the former Director of Mental Health for NHS England.
- Provides mental health interventions and alternative education provision for young people struggling with mental health difficulties.
- Many of their young people have disengaged from education and traditional therapies.
- By interacting with horses, young people develop capacities in emotion regulation, perspective-taking, communication and collaboration.
- 12 year track record of achieving positive outcomes for young people when traditional therapy and education services have failed.
- Plan to increase capacity from 500 to 1,000 at their new Barnet site and explore opportunities to expand to other parts of the UK.
- Chimo funding will transform SLTH’s growth prospects by hiring a new Operations Director and the purchase of new CRM system.
