A big thank you to CDYS for inviting us to take part in the Virtual Decisions Training! It was a great learning experience, and we’re looking forward to putting what we’ve learned into practice in our youth work and sharing it with our young people.

Community support makes a real difference!

We are delighted and honoured that Cherry Orchard Equine Centre was nominated to receive a generous €1,000 donation through the Home Store + More Community Fund.

It was a pleasure to visit Home Store + More in Nutgrove and meet the team behind this wonderful contribution.

As a charity, donations like this allow us to invest more into our programmes and services, strengthening the opportunities and support we provide to our community.

This is a wonderful example of how businesses can make a positive impact by supporting local charities. Every contribution, big or small, helps us build on the work we do and reach more people through our services.

A heartfelt thank you to the entire team at Home Store + More, Nutgrove, for their generosity, warm welcome and for choosing to support Cherry Orchard Equine Centre.

During Practical training students learned how to apply a variety of bandages to horses’ legs, including stable bandages, exercise bandages, and wound dressings. In today’s training students learned how to apply bandages safely and evenly, checking circulation and comfort, and removing bandages correctly.

What we hear vs. what they hear

Fireworks can be fun and exciting for us, but for horses and other animals, the sudden loud bangs can be frightening and distressing.

This Halloween, take a moment to think about who might be around you.
Be Sound. Think About Who Is Around.

Let’s make Halloween safer for everyone in our community.
