RDA Groups are individual charities and are run by highly qualified instructors and trained volunteers.
Groups vary in size, opening times and in the activities they offer, but all them operate to the same high standards of training, professionalism and care.
All Groups will focus on riding as therapy, but this is not all… as well as riding, many Groups offer a variety of equestrian disciplines including carriage driving, showjumping, vaulting and endurance riding. As well as other skills such as learning to care for the horses.
You may just want to attend your Group and enjoy the activities on offer, but if you’d like to get more involved there’s also always opportunities to volunteer.

Early Years Inclusion Support Funding is a financial contribution for early years settings towards the inclusion of children aged 0-5 who have a disability or difficulty that creates a barrier to their learning.
The funding is ‘Needs Led’.
An Early Years Inclusion Officer and your setting will discuss any additional support required, in partnership with parents. The funding can be used by the setting for training, resources or support which is additional to or different from what is normally expected to be provided within your setting. It is neither the expectation nor intention that the additional funding will provide 1-1 continuous support.
