Garioch Carriage Driving for Disabled Group is a member Group of the Riding for Disabled Association (RDA) which incorporates carriage driving. We provide people with disabilities in Aberdeenshire the opportunity to learn to carriage drive. We provide carriages, horses and equipment together with suitably trained volunteers to enable them learn to drive to the best of their abilities and to engage in a variety of carriage driving experiences. We own our own horses and carriages and our routine running costs are up to £4,000 each year. In addition we provide oportunities for our more experienced drivers to enter competitions and for the last two years have had successful qualifiers for the RDA National Championships in Hartpury Gloucestershire. We rely entirely on fundraising and donations to run the Group and would be delighted if you felt able to support us with a donation.

SNAPS is an independent, Leeds based, registered charity founded in 2004 and run by parents of children with special needs, disabilities and life limiting illnesses. Families of children with special needs with one or more complex health condition face significant barriers to mainstream leisure, social and employment opportunities. SNAPS address this by providing non judgmental “whole family” based support and currently reach more than 350 families from across the Yorkshire Region. SNAPS gives each and every child, their parents and carers, unconditional friendship and is dedicated to realising the full potential of each and every family affected by disability. Many of Snaps families with children have life limiting and complex disabilities, many sadly do not live past their 10th year, therefore every day is precious. Snaps is unique in that it allows any family with a disability to benefit from its services without the requirement of a completed disability assessment as this can take years and can involve more than 100 professionals. This can mean that parents are unable to seek any statutory support, even if this were available. Through taking part in “whole family” centred activities, we challenge and reduce social exclusion, by working in collaboration with current and fledgling community groups, immobilising and sharing community support aimed at improving health, fitness and social inclusion of families of children with disabilities, special needs, and complex life limiting health conditions. Every penny raised for SNAPS is gratefully received and frugally spent running practical services, directly benefiting Yorkshire families. Snaps is largely staffed by an army of volunteers and parents who give their time generously to provide vital services.Funding is crucial to enable us to continue our service and meet the needs of a long waiting list of more than 100 parents, desperately seeking to access our life changing service. We are truly grateful for support.
