Riding for the Disabled
Mark Stephen speaks to the dedicated coaches, volunteers and participants involved in Scotland’s largest Riding for the Disabled centre in Maryhill, Glasgow.
The Riding for the Disabled Association, also known as the RDA, was founded in 1969, and for over 55 years, the charity has been providing therapeutic horse-riding and carriage-driving lessons to thousands of individuals living with a disability, regardless of age or experience.
In this week’s Our Story, Mark Stephen hears from the dedicated coaches, volunteers and participants whose lives have been transformed through the incredible relationship between horse and human.
