Pegasus is a not-for-profit community organisation that provides equestrian activities for people with disabilities.  We bring horses and people together to achieve their potential.

Pegasus is located at Pegasus Farm on the outskirts of Canberra.  About 100 riders with a disability ride at Pegasus each week and about 100 volunteers assist with the operation of our programs. Our riding lessons are offered in an integrated environment with riders placed in classes according to their ability. We have a limited number of places for able bodied riders in our programs.

Why horse riding?
Apart from being fun, horse riding helps to improve co-ordination, balance, muscle development and fitness.  It also boosts personal confidence, self-esteem, communication skills, leadership and trust.
