BALLYFERMOT EQUINE CENTRE
The Cherry Orchard Equine Education and Training Centre (the COEETC) originated as a community led initiative in the late 1990’s to provide a facility and services to enable young people at risk to access quality education and training as an alternative to an unstructured life of boredom, anti-social behaviour and substance abuse. The need for and potential of an equine focused facility and complementary services were so compelling that the Cherry Orchard community received exceptional support from the Ballyfermot Partnership, Dublin City Council and and a number of government agencies, including FAS, CDYSB, URBAN Ballyfermot and the VEC.
