My son started RDA this year and already we have seen so many benefits you have my full support. The waiting list should definitely be shorter as the program is so beneficial to those who really need it

Our aim is to build an accessible high quality facility for our much needed disability program. The RDA equestrian program is specially designed for people with a variety of disabilities. Developing their riding skills while enjoying the freedom, movement, sensory feedback and exhilaration of riding a horse. Participants work on extending their ability, become limber, improve balance, core strength, posture and coordination. The program is truly amazing giving our participants the freedom to reach their goals. RDA Knox will be a community hub, a place for parents, people with a disability and volunteers to come together and support one another.
RDA Knox will provide high quality facilities to meet the growing need of our specialist program in the area. There is currently an extensive three year waiting list to join the program. Which is a testament to the need of our services in the area. We are also a volunteer based organisation that provides a space for diverse people with different backgrounds to interact and work together. Riders and volunteers enjoy the benefits that exercise and physical activities have, while also enjoying an outdoor natural setting, making friends and improving the lives of people with a disability.
