The latest update on the build from architect Sam and Natalie in Teddington.

When Natalie was invited to speak at the Worshipful Company of Farriers about how we do things at Park Lane, it was invite that was eagerly accepted. Find out what it was like to step in to this century-old institution.

Jason is a volunteer with Park Lane Stables and loves it so much that in 2022 he decided to work towards a prestigious Young Equestrian Leaders Award (YELA).

Park Lane Stables is emphatically not for profit, entirely dependent on the generosity of individuals, organisations, and grants. It’s time we sang the praises of our sponsors.

Our architect Sam reports from Teddington, on tiles, bricks and scaffolding.

This fabulous initiative is run by Mind and Rethink Mental Illness supported by the Co-op. Find out more from mental health activist Naomi Ghafoor, and do join us next week if you can.

You may have caught Natalie on BBC Breakfast on Thursday, but this time it was in a supporting role. This isn’t a Park Lane Stables story.

Fabian is a huge supporter of the work of the RDA, and visited us for the first time last month with his friend Tegan. We just love this video account of their visit!

It’s finally happening, and we couldn’t be more excited. The builders moved in to our historic stables in the heart of Teddington in mid November, and expect the whole refurbishment to be completed in March 2024.

New horses to adopt, cards, books and prints in stock, and lots of ways to make even a small gift to us go a long way towards our horses’ upkeep over the winter.

If you don’t know Dan, he’s one of our most committed participants and volunteers. Almost always seen with a huge smile on his face, Park Lane Stables is definitely his happy place. But why is running a half marathon such a big deal?

‘What happened next? Read our update!’

Not all the new horses that find their way to Park Lane Stables make it as an RDA pony. We work with each one, quietly and gently at their pace, to see how they respond to what we ask of them.

It’s time for you to meet Santa

Estate agent Savills has generously offered to support us, with donations, fundraising, and volunteering by local staff. They’ve already cheerfully got stuck in at fundraising events and aren’t shy about mucking out the stables, either.

We’ve been reviewing the numbers from our last financial year, and if we’ve felt extra busy all year, it’s because we were! But behind the stats are the individual stories we’ve been a part of. Let me introduce you to some of them.

If you accept that horses are great therapists, then it seems perfectly logical to us that they should do occasional hospital visits. We love visiting Kingston Hospital, where staff and patients alike are invited for a pony cuddle in the car park.

On the last Saturday before our summer break, we welcomed our friends from Abingdon RDA on an exchange visit. Talk about ending on a high.
