Help RDA meet rising costs over winter and you can help make this winter much brighter for the RDA community, our volunteers, participants, and horses!

The cost of living crisis is leading to dramatically increasing costs across the whole RDA community – from our National Office and National Training Centre, to our regions and member groups. And of course our valued volunteers, participants and their families are impacted by rising prices too.
We’re committed to maintaining the welfare of our amazing horses, and continuing to deliver our life-changing activities to the disabled community. We can’t do this without your support.
Your donation today could:
* Help with rising costs over winter such as fuel, electricity, and essential supplies
* Help cover the increasing cost of caring for horses, including veterinary bills
* Help provide essential volunteer training and other RDA educational programmes .
Whilst we are a very determined group the outlook over the coming winter for Penniwells RDA is worrying – with the cost of living forever rising, going forward we are worried about how we will survive.
Despite these rising costs, we want to ensure that our participants can still access their RDA sessions and that we continue our work to improve and grow our services so that more disabled children and adults can experience the benefit of horse therapy.
Please donate today. Your gift, however large or small, will make a very real difference to our community.
