West Coast Riding for the Disabled

West Coast Riding for the Disabled

We are a non profit organisation that provides horse riding therapy for children and adults with disabilities. We receive NO GOVERNMENT FU

Unspecified

We develop abilities and enrich lives through our horse riding programme. The horse is a large, non-judgemental animal which is incredibly intuitive, patient and gentle with the less able. Riding is a huge confidence boost for disabled people. Horses become their legs or eyes and allow them to go places impossible in a wheelchair.

In 2013 we have 37 children and 5 adults coming weekly. This is such an important service for the West Coast, where isolation and low incomes limit opportunities for disabled children. Our fee is heavily subsidised, however our costs are high. We need your financial support!!!
