About Riding for the Disabled
Incorporating Carriage Driving
Enriching lives through horses
At Riding for the Disabled Association (RDA), their horses benefit the lives of over 25,000 disabled children and adults. Activities like riding and carriage driving, provide therapy, fitness, skills development and opportunities. This is all supported by 18,000 amazing volunteers and qualified coaches at nearly 500 RDA centres all over the UK.
RDA is an inclusive and diverse organisation. They welcome clients with physical and learning disabilities and autism, and there are no age restrictions. Through their network of member groups, RDA is at work in every corner of the UK. This includes cities and remote rural areas. They bring the therapy, achievement and fun of horses to as many people as they can.
