We are getting ready for our Annual General Meeting so it's always great to look back at what was achieved in the last year....
Here are some of our favourite quotes from our 2025 participants.....
"Our young people have grown in confidence, have built strong friendships with the group that attended
the program. This also translated to their school work in class."
"Confidence building. Confronting fears such as putting on a helmet. Fun."
"I love my days at Tall Timbers. I get to meet and make friends, learn work skills and look after horses,
especially Nugget"
“She loves going to horsey therapy and is learning to socialise with others. Without the caring and
patience of the trainers, she would not be able to access this type of activity”
“Riding for the Disabled isn’t just about horses—it’s about freedom, confidence, and connection. It opens
up a world of movement and joy for those who may have never experienced it before”
“RDA brings so much joy to my daughter”
“Equine-assisted programs offer powerful healing and personal growth by connecting humans with the
intuitive presence of horses”
“I can only say positive things about RDA. My son looks forward to every session and is always met
where he is at on the day, and leaves in a better and happier place. He is getting stronger physically and
it helps him regulate his moods and gain experience socialising in a safe place where everyone is kind
and makes him feel valued. Thank you!”
“The RDA creates a wonderfully supportive and fun environment for my child to learn, grow and enjoy his
programs. He adores the horses and the volunteers, and his riding classes are a highlight of the week”
