Riding for the Disabled Association was established over 60 years ago and has continued to evolve and develop fsince, with a network of RDA association now spread throughout the world providing weekly riding or carriage driving sessions to disabled children and adults.
RDA provides the opportunity for individuals, with physical or intellectual disabilities, to horse ride or carriage drive and this in turn provides therapy, fitness, development of skills, socialisation, achievement and most importantly fun.
It is not only the riders who benefit, the volunteers gain so much from the Association with ongoing training and development, friendships and the opportunity to make a difference.
As a charity, RDA relies on sponsorship and donations. Groups raise funds locally to cover their running costs. Funding is sourced nationally for training and equipment along with annual expenditure.
