What Is The Pegasus Centre?

The Pegasus Centre is a wonderful facility, centred on a purpose-built, BHS-accredited, Riding School and Livery stable, surrounded by acres of grass-land and moor-land.

The Centre came about through a partnership between the Riding for the Disabled association, Blyth Valley Arts and Leisure and Northumberland County Council.

We are committed to providing excellent opportunities for participation in equestrian and other leisure pursuits and for the development of skills. We believe in ‘ability’, not ‘disability’, and encourage everyone who comes to the Pegasus Centre to discover talents they may not have known they had and to develop their skills and confidence.

In our Riding School our instructors, staff and volunteers are dedicated to ensuring that all our riders receive a high standard of professional tuition that is tailored to suit their personal capabilities and help them achieve their potential. Equally importantly we want all our riders to enjoy their experience and have fun!

The Pegasus Centre was designed with the needs of riders with disabilities in mind and our staff and volunteers are trained to be aware of the needs of riders with disabilities. At the same time our facilities are equally suited to the needs of riders, whether novices or experienced, with no disabilities.
