Isle Of Wight Youngsters Eligible For Free School Meals Praise Island Riding Centre Initiative
By Iona Stewart-Richardson
Island Riding Centre
An initiative at the Island Riding Centre (IRC) over the Easter holidays has given youngsters - eligible for free school meals - a one of a kind experience.
More than 100 young Island children aged between eight and 14 have been offered a free opportunity to meet and work with horses and ponies.
In partnership with the IOW Council and Wight Horse CIC, the free Easter Activity Club was available to youngsters who receive free school meals.
