Young people choose a theme which best suits their interests - animal care/equine handling, mechanics, or land-based skills. Activities are designed to build participants’ self-esteem, social skills, and motivation. Through hands-on learning, mentorship, and community involvement, the project creates pathways for young people to thrive, reconnect with education, and explore career options.

Equine Facilitated Learning

Horses are adept at non-verbal communication. They pick up on body language and give us instant feedback on how we interact with others.

Our activities encourage team spirit and cooperation. The Game Change Project helps to highlight each person’s unique strengths and qualities.

Our programmes at The Game Change Project, Powys, Mid Wales bring young people out of the classroom to learn life skills in a practical, outdoor setting.
