The emotional and physical benefits of
companion animals are now being established in psychiatric hospitals and
elderly care units and there is well-researched evidence that spending time
with animals can have a direct calming influence.
They are also a
focus for a child's affection. Even the most disturbed, agitated or withdrawn
child is more relaxed when stroking or talking to the donkeys. A confidence
shared with a donkey has no chance of being revealed as it can be with a human.
Learning new skills
Learning new skills
in a safe and caring environment means donkey assisted therapy is also fun. Setting simple, achievable goals at each riding session increases the motivation of the child, raising their self-esteem and confidence that is so often lacking in many of the children who first visit the centres. The act of riding also improves balance, co-ordination and dexterity for many children.
Donkey brings enjoyment and pleasure into children's lives and gives them the
satisfaction that comes with the achievement of learning new skills.
