Who we are

Stavlos Social Cooperative Enterprise (KOIN.S.EP.) was founded in 2022 in Trikala with a shared vision: to offer innovative and specialised services for children and people with disabilities through educational and therapeutic riding. Our activities take place on our privately owned 2.5‑stremma (0.25 ha) property, a short distance from the centre of Trikala, in a natural environment rich in stimuli—ideal for children’s emotional wellbeing and connection with nature and animals.

Educational Riding

Structured, child‑friendly lessons that combine learning, movement and hands‑on interaction with the horse.

Therapeutic Riding

Specialised, individualised sessions that use the horse’s movement and the child‑horse relationship to support development.

Visits / Partnerships / Volunteering

Programmes and visits for schools, KDAP/KDAP‑MEA and organisations, as well as volunteering opportunities.

Your first visit

The first visit is a calm introduction for the child and the family. We take time to meet you, answer questions and get to know the child’s needs and interests. The child can meet the horses, explore the space at their own pace and—if they feel comfortable—try a short introductory activity.
