The start of horse riding to empower disabled people is captured in this film by supporter, the Rev. Tony Smith. He had help from Susan Piggott who filmed her husband Lester mowing the lawn at home and her father's Newmarket stables. At Forest Lodge Riding School near Epping, Essex, Mrs Jacques worked with Gerry Van Der Gucht to develop the therapeutic riding programme. The film shows construction and opening of the specialist centre at Grange Farm, Chigwell, Essex 1964.
