A new classroom is set to be built at a New Forest riding therapy centre.

Plans for the modular room and access ramp at the Fortune Centre of Riding Therapy at Avon Tyrrell were approved by a National Park Authority planning officer.

The centre is now able to demolish an existing mounting ramp to carry out the installation of the new facility under the existing roof of the stable block.

A new access ramp is also included in the plans.

The FCRT works especially with young people with learning difficulties and disabilities.
