The Charty ran six RDA group sessions week for children fn)m SEND special %*KX)Is as well

We used separate (Krtdoor arenas for our ridirvJ SesS￿nS all of whith are provided to us free of

one in Binley. These provide a safe. fvn and healthy envronment in whith the thildren receive
Ihe full benefft of riding therapy with the added benefft of teathing them a Irtue bit abcxrt rural life
and Ihe surrounding countyside. The chldren's schools repeatedly comment on how beneficial
our riding sessions afe to their pupils both physicalty and mentally and the pupils themselves are
al￿a￿s eager to attend sessions.
Ad￿t riders were provijed with a weekly riding session throughout the year using both indoor and
outdoor fac11￿s.
Adult riders often continue coming to sessions for several years and show great improvement in
confKlence and wellbeing as well as fomiirvJ bonds wilh the RDA horses.
The highl*JM of the year is Fun Day in July at which all our participants can demonstrate the
skills they have achieved during the academic year with fun activities and plenty of rosettes for all.
thin
The Trustees and our Head Coath ensured that there were fully qualffied coathes for each of the
sessions arKI that the* coathes were assessed according to the guidelines laid (xrt by the
National Office of R￿Ing for the Disabled.
We encourage those volunteers who show willing to take up coaching.

Hargreave8 Foundation {2024: £4,169) arKI are extremely grateful to all donors for their efforts
and generosty.
The balan￿ of that donation was utilised against other expenses involved in relocating our
thildren's ponies and riding venue from St Mary Boume to Stoke.
Fundralslng activities
The Charrty has maintained its fundraising eff￿ts to help with the higher costs of providing ridirrfJ
activiti8s. The sale of Lzrds, wreaths and dothes raised £2,221 (2024: £2,114). Our golf day
raised £9,714 (2024: £11,015). Profts of £1,044 were made from a sponsored walk and a concert
at Penton thurch. We also received £3.860 (2024: £3,210) from pony sponsorship and £860

The Charty bought a new pony for £4.419 during the year and had other running costs of £22,832
{2024: £22,663). The 2025 costs were seen to be mitigated by book profts of £3,494 on the sale of
our van and a trailer.

The investments with M&G refiected an increase in market value of £1,242 during the year (2024:
