Providing a Day of Fun with a Horse Mounting Ramp

Millions of people around the world go through life with an illness or disability without the pleasure of experiencing something most people take for granted.  For example, some deal with asthma, preventing them from participating in a marathon.  Others are deaf preventing them from hearing the sweet sound of music, and some have an allergy preventing them from enjoying the outdoors.

Appropriately, there are those in the world who wish to help those people experience that once in a lifetime event.

I received a call from a lady in Ohio who owns a farm and is working on an ambitious idea of building a therapeutic riding center onto a parcel of land for disabled people to allow them that brief moment of being free from pain and worry.

Her idea is to purchase a ramp designed to reach the recommended height of 32” to safely mount a horse.  If the idea comes to life and reaches more disabled people than imagined, she would like to disassemble and reassemble the ramp whenever and wherever the horse mounting ramp is needed.
Handi-Ramp has a product, a horse mount ramp, that assembles in just minutes with no more than two people.  Fortunately, the ramp we manufacture at Handi-Ramp is just the ramp she needs.  Not only does our ramp require just two people, but there is no bolting necessary, allowing the ramp to be assembled (and disassembled) without tools.

PATH is one of the organizations that promotes horses as a therapy for people with special needs. The PATH website is a wealth of information and will help you find a local  chapter.
