Andover RDA has provided horse riding therapy to adults and children at 3 sites around Andover frover 50 years. Connection with ponies and horses gives riders many benefits including:

- improved core strength, balance and co-ordination as they ride.

- growth in confidence and social skills as they interact with the ponies and volunteers.

- fresh air and fun through games and riding challenges.

- achievements in gaining certificates of competencies.

Your donations are essential to pay for the care of our horses and ponies, their paddocks and vets bills, transport and equipment for rides. In 2024, we have to move our ponies from St. Mary Bourne to Stoke and your help is really needed to fund this.

ARDA is run solely on donations and receives no government funding.
