Stable Lives (SL) is a charity based at Parbold Equestrian Centre (PEC). Born out of personal experience, volunteers at Stable Lives recognise the devastating effect that Mental Health Traumas can have on children, individuals and their families.
Our location provides a calm, safe place where people can come to mentally rest, relax and reconnect into society and family life. We do this by using horses and land-based activities to improve confidence, self-esteem and self-worth. The effects of linking those suffering with mental health issues with horses who have been mentally and physically neglected is incredibly emotive. The development of empathy, compassion and understanding between human and horse is both moving and powerful and provides the groundwork for those to rebuild their lives on a firm footing of trust and calm considered friendship and relationship building.
