DIGSWELL PLACE GROUP RIDING FOR THE DISABLED ASSOCIATION
Through horseriding activities we aim to provide therapy, achievement and enjoyment to children and adults with a variety of disabilities. The riders gain the physiological advantages of exercise in the open air, increased self-confidence, independence from taking responsibility and the opportunity to meet and socialise with the RDA community and have fun.Merged with Charity 1074341 on 12Nov2015.
