Cotswold Riding for the Disabled (UK, 1160676) Browse events

YTD Raised: £569.18

Our purpose is to promote a culture of learning, development, achievement and enjoyment for our riders that allows each and every one to reach their full potential. With over 180 riders each week, supported by 120 volunteers, we want to ensure that Cotswold RDA is “where aspirations become a reality” for everyone. Everyone of our riders all have a disability whether physical, mental or a learning difficulty, but we help them achieve the best they can whatever the disability or age. Riders like Kai who is 5, a wheelchair user with complex emotional issues and in long term fostering. At first he was apprehensive of riding but built a rapport with volunteers. Riding became a focus for him. The continuity and routine had a huge impact on his learning, behaviour and emotional state. His confidence grew as did his core strength and now he can walk independently to his horse and mount confidently. At school he gets out of his wheelchair and sits at a desk. His teachers report a real step change in confidence and how he engages with education. And as Kai says “riding is fun!” We hope you find the brief outline of our work as inspiring as we do; your generosity will ensure we can continue to provide this amazing service in the years to come.Thankyou for your support.
