The Ark Small Holding

Based in the parish of Collingham, Wetherby, The Ark is a Thrive based intervention for anyone who may be struggling with their social and emotional wellbeing.

Between us we have over 20 years of educational experience working with children and their families, covering a wide range of issues and working together with agencies to support them.

All staff are DBS checked and safeguarding trained.

At The Ark visitors will be involved with the daily running of a smallholding and get hands on experience working with the animals and managing the land. The Ark offers individual support plans, focusing on emotional and mental wellbeing. The Ark also offer animal therapy, bereavement counselling and general life skills.

We believe in building positive relationships with all our visitors and understand that each individual has different needs. We make it our mission to give everybody a chance and a focus to help them find their passion. All within a safe, calm and relaxed environment.

If you know anyone who you think may benefit from attending The Ark, or if you would like to discuss what support could be offered please contact us.

The Ark are also happy to arrange visits if you would like to see first hand what we are about. Bring wellies!
