We adopted this as the name of our organisation in 1995 because it conveys our culture perfectly.  Festina Lente was founded in 1988 by Mary Rachel Brophy; her aim was through social and economic inclusion, to support those most at risk.  The result of all of the Festina Lente’s hard work is the wonderful garden and state of the art Equestrian Centre which are available to the public to enjoy whenever they want.Events Refund PolicyAs a non-profit organisation, all profits generated from our events go directly toward supporting our mission which is to provide a unique range of equestrian and horticultural learning, training and employment opportunities that focuses on social inclusion, choice, and personal development.The costs of planning our events are committed in advance to plan and deliver our activities.
