Abingdon RDA
Help out at a session
Volunteering is the back bone of RDA. Without our marvelous
army of voluntary members there would be no riding, and we are
extremely grateful to them all for the many hours they give us
- some driving long distances and others coming several times
a week. All voluntary helpers receive training when they first
join us, and we continue to train them to the level that they wish
to attain.
Some enjoy sidewalking only, whereas others wish to learn to tack
up, and do more with the horses. Some go onto being
Instructors with the Group.
We have many classes each week, both during the day and in the
evenings and on Saturday mornings, so from the time point-of-view,
there is plenty of choice. RDA is fun and it is
wonderful to see what it does for our riders.”
All volunteers must have Disclosure from the Criminal Records
Bureau (CRB). Under current legislation this has to be
organised from within the group.
