Changing Lives Through Horse Riding

Empowering children and adults with disabilities through therapeutic horse riding, friendship, and freedom — one stride at a time.

Welcome to Ravelrig RDA

We are a volunteer-led charity offering therapeutic horse riding sessions to children and adults with physical and learning disabilities. 

Based in the beautiful surroundings of Ravelrig, we aim to create a space where our riders can build strength, confidence, and joy — all with the help of our incredible horses and volunteers.

Volunteer-Led Support


Our dedicated team of volunteers plays a vital role in delivering safe, personalised sessions and maintaining our stables and grounds.

Personal Growth & Confidence
