RDA only operates due to the commitment of local volunteers. Volunteers offer their services for free and prior horse knowledge is not necessary as training is given.

Riding takes place on Saturday mornings from 9.30am to around 12 noon. There is riding at Shacks Barn every Saturday, the horses and ponies operate every week as we have two teams of riders, helpers and instructors who attend fortnightly.The Grafton group, accommodating adult riders, attend on Thursdays.
