About Us
What started out as a small collection of ponies in 2001, has grown into a family of equine and human (and feline) members.
Ranger Stables is a community-based Equestrian Center situated at REEA, the Rand Epileptic Employment Agency in Craighall Park.
Established over 2 decades ago, with just two horses, today Rangers proudly houses 24 horses and ponies, some of whom are rescues from dire circumstances that we have managed to rehabilitate and teach how to trust again. Some have taken years to recover, and with rescuing, the road is often sad and painful for both horse and human, but each time we are able to give them a happy home, unconditional love and show them there is goodness in the world.
The Rangers’ equestrian activities include instruction, outrides, competitions, pony parties, pony rides, disabled riding and providing assistance at events as such market days and school fairs.
The Rangers work with several community and municipal organisations, such as City Parks, JMPD, Joburg Water, Rand Water, HIV/Aids NGOs, schools and local Residents’ Associations. They serve the community through daily patrols along the Braamfontein Spruit, monitoring ecological, social and security conditions, all of which are then relayed to Parkview SAPS through our joint operations through the Community Policing Forum.
Although it is a small community of riders, we are a family that is dedicated to helping touch peoples lives and show them just how wonderful and beneficial interacting with these animals can be, while bettering the lives of each incredible animal that crosses our path.
