RDA: Enriching Lives Through Horses Since 1969
At Riding for the Disabled Association (RDA), we believe in the transformative power of horses to change lives – and we want you to be part of it. Each year, we help over 25,000 children and adults across the UK, through activities like riding, carriage driving, and equine-assisted programmes like Quiet Corners and Tea with a Pony.
Did you know that 1 in 4 people in the UK are disabled? Despite the known benefits of physical activity, many disabled people still face significant barriers to being active in their communities. That’s where you come in. As pioneers in the therapeutic use of horses, we are leading the way in improving health, wellbeing, and confidence for disabled people.
