The Swindon & Wiltshire Innovative Technology Care Hub (SWITCH) is a collaboration between New College Swindon and Wiltshire College to enhance and upskill health and social care staff across Swindon, Wiltshire and beyond. SWITCH will accelerate skills development in health, care and life science through immersive technologies such as augmented reality and virtual reality, where learners ‘learn by doing’ rather than by simply watching. Embedding reality technology allows us to offer unparalleled simulation activities across a broad provision for job roles within hospitals, care homes and beyond. We have learning hubs within both New College Swindon and Wiltshire College and University Centre
Our Mascot!

Happy Hooves offers magical, meaningful moments through our gentle therapy horses. We specialise in therapeutic visits to care homes, schools, nurseries, and special educational needs (SEN) settings, bringing calm, joy, and connection to people of all ages and abilities.
Whether it’s a quiet cuddle with a resident, an educational interaction for a class, or simply a chance to smile, our horses are trained to provide comfort, confidence, and companionship.
We also bring the fun to life’s special moments with unforgettable children’s parties—where little ones can meet, groom, and walk our ponies in a safe, friendly environment that sparks imagination and wonder.
At Happy Hooves, we’re passionate about making a difference. With kindness, care, and a whole lot of heart, we bring our ponies to you—creating experiences that leave a lasting impression, one happy hoof at a time.
