Afternoon 
I am an undergraduate student studying Neuroscience and Psychology at Keele Univeristy and am currently researching and putting feelers out for my dissertation. I am interested in looking at the effect of hippotherapy (equine therapy) on children with developmental disorders, such as autism and ADHD, and with children with behavioral difficulties. If all goes well I hope to later investigate whether hippotherapy can improve emotional recognition in children with Autism.
So what do I want from you lovely lot? At the moment I am trying to compile a database of people who would be interested in helping me by completing an interview (face to face or via e-mail) and also centres that do this sort of therapy. I have a few contacts, but they are limited and could really do with some more so any help appreciated!
I personally really believe in the benefits of hippotherapy, but at the moment its use is really limited and would love to play a part in its development so any help really is appreciated!
If you have any questions feel free to reply on here or PM me if you prefer
