The clwity benefits people of any age, both in the UK and throughout the world who for whatever reason either do not receive an education or are unable to take the m&Yimum benefit possible from the educational opportunÈti¢s they receive. BaTriers to Education It became very clearly early on in 2020 that due to emerging and ongoing COV1D-19 pand¢mxc it would be difficult for us to continue our support of small-scale educational projects overseas as internallonal travel restrictions along with widespread global school cloSu￿S would make it near imtK)ssible for the Charity to monitor thai fimds were being spent as intended. As a result the Trustees suspended this part of the Charity's work early in 2020. This suspension was regularly reviewed however remained in place for the remainder of the year. Rangers Riding Ranch This project continues to be established and will offer children and young people with additional needs a non-¢lassroom based environment in which they can learn and develop a range of lifelong transferable skills they will be able to use throughout thcxr liv¢s and in the workplace. There is a wide body of research which shows that these skills can successfully be taught to these target groups through conlact with horses helpin8 them both educationally and emotionally. It was agreed io expand this work to include military velerans to help them provide them with the necessary skills to transition back into civilian life. Our services are kept under regular review and r¢-evaJuation.
