Volunteers

Volunteers are Special People

Riding Develops Ability Centres, like many other organisations depends on the efforts of those special persons who give generously of their time to help others.

Our volunteers come from many walks of life and are aged from early teens to octogenarians and we value the resources and life experience they offer us. And if you are keen to branch out into a new field, we have highly trained Coaches to mentor and train you in most areas of interest.

The rewards of volunteering in Riding Develops Abilities are immeasurable and radiate from the smiles, expressions of delight and enthusiasm expressed by our riders and clients.

We need persons to assist in the many and varied job profiles listed below.

Office Administration, Property maintenance, Catering, Committee and Management, Fund Raising, Equestrian skills in horse handling, training, feeding and grooming.
