BRADBOURNE GROUP RIDING FOR THE DISABLED ASSOCIATION
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS AND TRUSTEES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
Review of th• year
The year commenced on 2n¢J April with a very positive and successful on-site dressage competition run
by the Wednesday evening riding coaches which was enjoyed by the 23 riders who took part, their
families and friends, and the many Group volunteers who enabled the event to take place.
For the first time for such an event, donations from those taking part were encouraged as part of the
requirement for the Group to identify new sources of funding,. given how positively this was received
and the monies generated thatwill be Ihe intentfor future onsite riding and driving events for the Group,
participants.
Throughout the year a range of smaller new fundraising initiatives took place, from Individual rlders
undertaking strenuous sponsored walking challenges iotalling hundreds of miles and trampolining sixty
times as part of our Group's 60th birthday 60 challenges, to the sale of donated specially designed 601h
tea towels and mouse mats featuring the ponies supporting the Group's operations. A number of talks
were giv8n to local clubs and associations. there was a Bradbourne RDA sland al the neighbouring
Sevenoaks Wildlife Reserve Festival of Nature. for which Group wheelchair bound participants
undertook an accessibility audit. and a sell-oul Quiz was held in the clubhouse for participants.
v.olunteers. their families and other supporters. As usual the Group had a presence at the Shoreham
Heavy Horse Show just before the new term in September, and ran another successful fundraising ride
through Knole Park in October. All of Ihese provided invaluable funds as well as enhanced the profile
of Bradbourne RDA Group in the local area, but none provided the signrficanl level of new unrestricted
monies the Group requires annually.
It was not long after the start of the year that the challenges of the health of several ponies began and
whlch would dominate the full year, negatlvely impacting the operational income as well as the number
of riders and carriage drivers the Group could offer opportunities to, while increasing the costs of
veterinary care. Ride and drive pony Disney was the first to go lame. followed by stalwart of the herd
Patch late in the summer term. and by Christmas Jet was also declared unfit. Al the end ofthls financial
year all three remain on recovery programmes with very limited possibilities to support disabled riders,
and then only at walk and outside avoiding the turns necessary within the indoor arena. The
continuation of the poor weather conditions mean frequently none can be used on a ride. and Disney
remains off carriage driving for the foreseeable future. No new riders could join a session from the
waiting.list throughout the year. and each carriage driver was cancelled once every few weeks in
rotation to avoid Missy being over-v￿rked.
Very sadly the Group lost 28-year-old pony Flnn in December, and after ten years of supporting the
largest and most unbalanced riders as well as enabling many to participate in a range of offsite event
activities Al. now 23, needed his workload managed more carefully. The Group will no longer take him
to external competitions.
On the more positive side, Storm became an integral member of Ihe working herd both for the Group
rides and for the Bradbourne Riding & Training Centre (BRTC) rides, and along with Missy became the
most hard-working ponies. Considerable time and attention has been focussed throughout the year by
the Pony Care Team on the daily and weekly ride commitments of each pony, with the Group advising
BRTC of limits for storm and Missy particularly. Although young Jake started the year very well and
behaved impeccably on his informal visit to the National Championships, his movement around the
rnounting block meant a new training regime had to be commenced in the Autumn led by a minimal
number of Group coaches taking him back to basics. Thls necessary investment In time in such a
young pony is progressing slowly but positively. with the aim of introducing Jake for use by some
suitable participants from September 2024.
Despile the restrictions on pony availability the coaches did a fantastic job of moving riders around to
even out the pony workload and ensure as well as Ihe onsite informal dressage competition riders could
prepare to compete in the Challenge Day al Felbridge, which was subsequently cancelled by the SE
Region RDA due to lack of entrants. and the region qualifiers for carriage driving and riding. Two drivers
and four riders qualified for the National Championships and participated in the competitions at Hartpury
in July. In addition, the Group's carriage drivers had the opportunity for an informal driving lesson at a

BRADBOURNE GROUP RIDING FOR THE DISABLED ASSOCIATION
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS AND TRUSTEES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
farm in Rye. providing invaluable offsite experience for pony Missy. and the SE Region carriage driving
Le Trec competition took place very successfully at Bradbourne. Despite another hot period of summer
weather. the Group ran two weeks of mini pony camps in the summer holidays for a large number of
riding participants.
Although two volunteers commenced the year working towards becoming riding coaches. one sadly
had to leave the Group for work reasons. The other volunteer continues to make progress towards
qualification, while one of the carriage driving team commenced training to become an RDA driving
coach. Coach health challenges led to the cessation of the Thursday evening sessions in the Autumn
and the loss of one of the Wednesday evening coaches, and al Christmas the Group had to say farewell
to a riding coach who had volunteered at Bradbourne for over twenty years. The Group again joined
the Hadlow College careers day, and the year was marked by an increase in requests from young
people wishing to undertake Duke of Edinburgh award experience with Bradbourne RDA while
supporting the Group's evening sessions. There were fewer general adult volunteer enquiries, but a
number of veterinary students joined the daytirne teams for different weeks across the summer term as
part of their studies, providing invaluable support while regular volunteers were away, off sick or
supporting family members undertaking key exams.
The Trustees were delighted to welcome Sarah Bowes to the Board to lead on fundraising, and Keeley's
return after maternity to focus on the volunteer management, social media and promotional activity as
well as events with Sarah. Cheryl left her role as Group Secretary in Julyfollowing afamily bereavemenl
which re-focussed her aims for her free time, and Jon advised of his intent lo step down from the Board
during the new financial year after six years as Treasurer. With her involvement in the accounts already,
Jane expressed interest to take up the Treasurer role and commenced working in parallel with Jon in
the final quarter.
As part of the Group's ongoing health and safety practices, the riding hats the Group makes available
for the parlicipanls were replaced with the modern adjustable style resulting in the need for only eight
of three differenl sizes ralher than more than forty individually sized ones as before. These are solely
for RDA purposes at Bradbourne with the Group's former helmets being taken over by BRTC for their
riders. First aid and new volunteer training sessions were held across the year on sile at Bradbourne.
One of the coaches set up a more formal tack cleaning team who regularly mel in holidays and haff-
terms to clean and check the tack for each of the Group's ponies, and the Group again welcomed
team Irom Valero to undertake a day of DIY around the site, cleaning the caravans and removing
vegetation from the ride paths.
Although a challenging year in many respects. there were a number of very positive and happy get-
iogethers involving a large number of riders, carriage drivers, volunteers, families, supporters, friends
and ponies, with the celebrations of Finn's SE Region pony of the year award, pony Al's long service
presentation, and the very popular Christmas party. A very significant day, held in July at Bradbourne
in and around the clubhouse, marked Bradbourne RDA Group's 60th birthday and celebrated all that
the Group's founder and late President, Peter Felgate, developed and achiev8d for those with
disabilities and special needs which continues today through the dedication and commitment of 130
volunleers. A tree is due to be planted commemorating Peter and the Group's sixty years of providing
enjoyable and therapeutic experiences in the Autumn.
Financial Position
The Statement of Financial Activities shows net expenditure for the year of £25,791 (2023.. net
expenditure of£28,348). Resepies stand at £146,782 (2023: £172,573) at the year-end of which £1,785
(2023- £7,407) are restricted funds.
Reserves Pollcy
The Charity aims to maintain unrestricted free reserves sufficient to cover 12 months, expenses net of
epreciation. amortisation or any profiuloss on disposal of fixed assets. As at the balance sheet date,

BRADBOURNE GROUP RIDING FOR THE DISABLED ASSOCIATION
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS AND TRUSTEES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
the unrestricted free reserves. (excluding those represenied by fixed assets), were £85,005 (2023..
£71.268) equivalent to 11 months, expenses.
The current level of reserves is lower than the Board would like the Group to hold and the Board is
formalising a plan of ideas to address this within the current financial year.
Plans for the Future
The three key priorities for the Group are focussed on securing significant funds from new sources,
purchasing a pony or ponies. and increasing the number of riding and carriage driving Coaches.
The Board aims io appoint a volunteer dedicated to work on grant and trust applications to be led by
the Group's truslee focussed on fundraising. She herse￿ will continue to plan, organise and implement
a range of smaller initiatives which engage with a wide range of contacts generating smaller amounts
of funds yet maintaining the profile of Bradbourne RDA Group in the local community, particularly with
schools.
The Group is looking forward to working closely wlth the newly appointed Sevenoaks Town Council
Mayor. Cllr Ancrum, who has chosen Bradbourne RDA as one of her two charities to support through
fundraising and awareness over her mayoral year and would aim to Identrfy additional volunteers to
support back-offKe roles from the new connections being the Mayoff s charity will facilitate.
With the ongoing uncertaints'es about the future working capability of the Group's ponies currently still
on recovery programmes, partlcularly Disney and Patch, as well as Bisto and potentially Jet being
restricted to walk only rides while Jake will only be suited to a few riders with disabilities later in Ihe
year, there is an urgent need to obtain at least one additional pony. The Pony Care Team is considering
different approaches to maximise the Group's chances of having the opportunity to review potential
equines before they are sold glven the current market condllions.
Although one person in training should qualify in 2024, one potentially in 2025, a new coach has joined
to help the Wednesday evening sessions on a fortnightly basis. and one new volunteer expressed
interest to become a coach in the future, there is an urgent need to expand the coaching team to
alleviate the increased pressure on the existing team of 3 ongoing driving and 9 riding coaches. several
of whom will be stepping back from some or all of their current commitments during Ihe new financial
year. The Group wlll focus on encouraging other existing adult volunteers io come forward or new adult
volunteers to join the coaching pathway, and provlde the usual level of support for those coaches In
training.
The Board, coaching team and volunteers contlnue to be fully committed to continue to provide the
most rewarding. beneficial and enjoyable riding and carriage driving experiences through weekly
sessions. on-site competitions, and offsite riding and driving events, run to the highest standard
8radbourne RDA can achieve with the Group's ponies and those kindly loaned to the Group for their
rldes by 8RTC for the foreseeable future.
