Pandemic Referrals

During periods where our operations have to change to respond to the national situation we have alternative referral systems to let us know which of the children we are working with continue to need support and to facilitate those whose parents are key workers or have no alternative provision but a severe need to access referral slots quickly.

JAC will be our life saver during this time

During the COVID-19 outbreak, JAC stayed open to facilitate supporting schools in caring for the children of key workers and the most vulnerable children who needed support to battle the anxiety of the situation.

JAC COVID-19 Response

Where we are

Rehoboth is based directly off Forest Road, just outside of Wokingham. All of our mentoring sessions take place here.

Who we are

We are JAC (Just Around The Corner), a Christian charity based near Wokingham in Berkshire, set in 15 acres of stunning English countryside. Founded in 1998, we are a unique centre providing personal learning and professional development therapies.

Equine Assisted Learning

Learning and developmental therapy for children and young people through the use of horses, mentors and therapists.

Our story

A Christian charity providing equine assisted learning and development programmes for children with challenges such as ADHD, anger, self-esteem, trauma and depression.

Horseplay

Horseplay? Definitely! Enjoy making friends with our loveable horses. Your time will include plenty of hands on interaction, laughing, loving and of course, riding the horses.

Mentoring programmes

We accept referrals for children with emotional, behavioural and learning disabilities from Social Services, schools, LEAs, Pupil Referral Units and parents.

Vital Volunteers

Like many Charities, our ongoing ability to reach out to children and young people, depends deeply on not just funding, but a team of Vital Volunteers.

Jobs

Come and join our team of enthusiastic, passionate, Christ-focussed workers.

Support JAC

Funding is fundamental to our future. Whether through a small one off donation, a regular pledge or even a legacy, we are forever grateful for your support.

Referrals

Based in Berkshire, we take referrals from anyone for young people aged 5-24. Make an online referral or download our referral form from this page.

Outreach work

JAC began in 1998 as detatched work on the streets of Woodley. Our founders saw a need to be where the young people were and so took to the streets to find them and create a connection by meeting them as they were.
