North Ferriby Riding For The Disabled Association

North Ferriby RDA was set up in the 1980s by Dr June Alexandra with Leo and Joy Neil. When Leo and Joy retired in 1999 a new committee was formed, and the journey to find more horses and update the facilities began.

What a journey this was, we now pride ourselves in having a strong volunteer team and committee, with everyone doing their own bit.

We have moved our group forward opening new doors which are not only about horse riding. We have discovered there are other things that help people with both physical and mental health problems such as;

Equine care + management
Stable management
Equine ground agility
Equine facilitated learning
Employability Skill programs
Special bespoke programs to suit participant’s needs.

Please ensure that appropriate clothing and footwear will be worn. A parent or caregiver must be present with the child at all times.

Join us for a day at the North Ferriby Riding for the Disabled. You will learn about our animals such as ponies, donkeys and alpacas, and will get hands on involved with their care. We will have easter themed crafts, a woodland scavenger hunt and an easter hobby horse show jumping contest to join in with. It will take place within animal paddocks so you may get muddy! Appropriate footwear and clothing for a farm environment are a must. These sessions are solely for SEN children, and a parent or caregiver must be present with the child at all times.
