The saddest thing about having a holiday is not seeing our equine friends as much, which means we were excited to be reunited and bring the herd (ponies and people) together. Last term we had so many dry sessions it was only a matter of time before having some wet ones but, after the downpours, our beautiful stables are looking much greener, it was needed! This week, our cherished horses and ponies ensured they looked after their riders, the best RDA equines are like best friends who quietly make life much better. Huge thanks to their owners who look after them incredibly well. With smiles wide, our riders enthusiastically got back in the saddle as if they hadn’t been away. With plenty of horsey hugs to begin the term, we had a fantastic start and thank you to all the amazing volunteers. We look forward to enjoying many shared (and fun!) autumnal rides this season. Here’s to an inspiring term ahead!
