Hoist

In order to be fully inclusive The Avon Centre has two hoists. One allows riders who are unable to mount from the ramp or ground to be hoisted onto the horse, the other offers access to the horse simulator. Our hoists are in urgent need of replacing.

Story

Our hoists are over 20 years old. Unfortunately parts for repairs are no longer available. This month our arena hoist stopped working, and if the simulator hoist stopped working we would be unable to repair it. We need both hoists to be able to continue to support riders with access needs to access the physical and mental health benefits of horse riding.

Any monies raised after the cost of replacing the hoists will be used for the regular service of the hoists, and will continue to support riders to access our activities.
