Ride For Respite: Book your free practice session now!
Preparing for our upcoming #RideForRespite event
What’s happening?
We’re excited to announce that free practice sessions are now available to book for anyone planning to take part in our next Sponsored Bob Ride — raising funds for MEPT’s newest project: The Shepherd’s Bothy.
These gentle, horse-led sessions are a chance to meet Bob, build confidence, and prepare for your sponsored ride in a calm, supportive environment. Led by our trauma-informed team, each session is designed to help you feel safe, steady, and connected—whether you’re new to riding or returning after a break.
Who can book a free session?
These free sessions are reserved for registered Sponsored Bob Riders who are raising a minimum of £20 in sponsorship. It’s our way of saying thank you—and helping you feel ready to ride with confidence and purpose.
Not taking part in the sponsored ride? No problem—Bob sessions are still available to book through our website for £30 per session, and we’d love to welcome you.
Why we’re riding
All funds raised through the Sponsored Bob Ride will go directly towards The Shepherd’s Bothy—a new, restorative space at MEPT offering warmth, shelter, and quiet reflection for participants, families, and volunteers.
Book your place
Spaces are limited, so early booking is encouraged. Head to our Events page to reserve your free practice session and start your #RideForRespite journey today.
