Your Legacy can make a Lasting Difference
Each year, approximately £1 in every £5 of RDA UK’s charitable income comes generous individuals who choose to remember us in their wills.
Why Leave a Gift to RDA?


“It is impossible to put into words how much Nic loved horses and riding. The excellent work of the RDA enabled her to enjoy riding for a long time after it would have been otherwise possible (and I believe that’s why she included RDA in her Will). On her behalf and ours, thank you so much for your great work.”

I was so happy to find out that Iris had left a gift in her Will to RDA UK. From the day she joined our family in the mid-1950s she worked tirelessly to support my mother Mollie in every way, including bringing the joy of ponies and riding to all. No condition or disability was an obstacle! Without Iris’s consistent help, Mollie would not have been able to set up so many RDA groups across south-west England in the 1970s – many of which are still running today. This gift has brought back many happy memories of them and the riders in both pre and early RDA days! Thank you Iris.
How your gift helps
Recent gifts have enabled us to:
- Launch new non-ridden equine-assisted services, allowing participants to experience the therapeutic benefits of horses in diverse ways.
- Strengthen our equine welfare programme, ensuring the health and well-being of our horses remains central to everything we do.
- Support the RDA UK National Championships, where the RDA community unites annually to celebrate achievements and forge lifelong friendships.
Additionally, several RDA groups have recently received generous gifts, which have enabled them to enhance their facilities for participants and invest in new equines and equipment.
Every gift, no matter the size, leaves a lasting impact.
