Providing mental health support for disadvantaged young people and purchasable equine-assisted therapy for adults.
Support the work we do, we simply couldn’t do it without you.
Supporting mental health and personal growth through Equine-assisted therapy
Out of Class is a charity run by a dynamic team of people who think difference is good. We believe dreams are where plans are born and just because someone has fallen short of the academic measure used by our education system it shouldn’t mean the end of opportunity altogether. Struggling academically doesn’t always mean working harder... sometimes it just means working differently, thinking outside the box and in our case outside of class.
Out of Class provides outdoor activities to support youth mental health and development. More often than not this includes courses with our trained therapy horses and dogs!
Our mission
To create a space for discovery and growth where academically challenged young people can utilise skills rarely used in the classroom. Helping our beneficiaries find something they love and excel at and having the support and guidance to turn those skills into a future. Young people on the project are encouraged to try new things and reflect in a non judgemental environment where the process is just as important as the finished product

A) Developing their skills, capacities and capabilities to enable them to participate in society as independent, mature and responsible individuals;
