New sign for SCRDA Sunshine Coast Riding for the Disabled (RDA) Inc. (SCRDA) is a not-for-profit organisation providing equine-based therapeutic and recreational riding, carriage driving and onground programs for members of the disability community since 1978. The Rotary Club of Eumundi, with funds raised through Eumundi Voice, was pleased to support
the group’s work with a donation for new front gate signage at the property entrance 2 Monak Rd North Arm. SCRDA’s Carolyn Neville explained, “In 2012 SCRDA purchased 24 acres at North Arm. We set up a temporary arena to run programs and a portable donga as a clubhouse. It was very much like camping for quite a while! We currently run eight programs over a five-day week. Five are for riding, two are on-ground and one is a carriage driving program. Our youngest group therapy rider is five years old and our eldest is nearly 80 years young. “We have a team of 130 volunteers who assist with the programs to allow more than 138 participants to enjoy their activities in a safe and controlled manner. Our 21 hard-working horses are specially selected and trained to allow participants to enjoy and develop their skills in a safe environment. Many are assessed and trained for particular roles to allow them to provide the unique services of the programs.” To get involved email: admin@scrda.org.au or phone 07 5472 7280.
