Get To Know Us At ALBA Therapy Ponies

We understand that every setting is different, which is why we offer both mobile visits and sessions at our home base. Whether we bring the ponies to you or welcome you into their familiar surroundings, each experience is thoughtfully planned to ensure comfort, safety, and meaningful time with the ponies. Below you will find more information about the types of visits the ponies usually attend, as well as some of the experiences we offer from our home base. If you have a different visit idea in mind please do reach out. 

Our therapy ponies love visiting various care homes throughout Scotland, bringing warmth, laughter, and comfort to residents of all ages. During each visit, everyone has the chance to meet the ponies, hear their stories, and even enjoy brushing or leading them. These simple, hands-on moments often spark fond memories, encourage conversation, and create a wonderful sense of calm and connection. Every visit is filled with smiles, shared stories, and the kind of joy that lingers long after the ponies have returned home.

Bring a touch of enchantment to your child’s special day with our friendly miniature party ponies! Perfectly sized to fit into gardens or community spaces, our ponies provide unique entertainment that’s far more exciting than old-fashioned party games. Children can meet, brush, and lead our gentle ponies while enjoying fun, pony-themed games and obstacle activities. And when the weather is just right, our ponies can even transform into sparkling unicorns, adding an extra sprinkle of magic to the celebration! Every visit is filled with laughter, wonder, and unforgettable memories — and who knows, meeting our ponies might even inspire a lifelong love of horses! Please note: On booking please explicitly state if you prefer a unicorn visit over the ponies as this comes at an additional fee. Unicorn visits run between March - September 

Make your special day truly unforgettable with our beautiful miniature ponies — a one-of-a-kind addition that wedding experts say they’ve never seen before! Our ponies bring a touch of charm and delight to any celebration, whether they’re handing out confetti, serving drinks as four-legged waiters with beer and prosecco, or simply mingling with guests and entertaining the children. Each pony can be lovingly draped in flowers to match your wedding colour scheme, creating stunning photo opportunities and lasting memories. It’s a magical, show-stopping experience that’s as meaningful as it is memorable — and best of all, every penny made goes directly back into the ponies’ care and wellbeing.
