Some more things you might like to know about us.

SAFETY

We pay particular attention to safety. Every rider must have medical consent before they may ride with us and those under 18 years must have the consent of a parent/guardian.

Great emphasis is laid on the suitability of each horse for RDA work in general and also on the suitability of any particular horse for each individual rider.

It must be remembered that no sporting activity can be guaranteed 100% safe.
