Policy on grant making

Para 1.38		 Grants have been applied for new
equipment needed by the group
(sheepskin saddle) and for funds to help
us replace our current vehicle which is
getting old and unreliable. Our vehicle is
needed to tow horses and equipment to
activities. Also a grant to improve
wheelchair access to our site. We do not
make grants to other organisations or
charities.


Contribution made by
volunteers

Para 1.38		 11 volunteers help to care for the horses
on the yard, 4 of whom have disabilities. 2
students come to us on work placement
from local colleges to learn equine care


and yard skills. A team of 9 volunteers
help with RDA riding sessions, 6 help with
RDA vaulting sessions- and 21 volunteers
help when they can

Other

 6 horses were used this year at home
venue, and 2 part time staff members,
paid for by grants given to the group. 20+
other horses were hired from 2 riding
establishments for our busiest RDA
sessions.

Achievements and performance




Summary of the main
achievements of the charity,
identifying the difference the
charity’s work has made to
the circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a
whole.


Para 1.20		 Our capacity increased in 2024, with 45
participants taking part in activities, and
35 volunteers.

Of our beneficiaries, 11 are adults and 34
are children and young people under the
age of 25

Participants had opportunities to gain
RDA proficiency grades and certificates
as part of their experience during RDA
activities, as well as the opportunity to
compete in regional and national
competitions, and national virtual
competitions. Feedback gained from
participants and their families confirmed
that participants had increased in
selfconfidence, horsemanship skills and
social skills, as well as increased
physical and mental-well.
13 riders and vaulters attended the RDA
national championship competition in
Hartpury, Gloucester, competing against
riders from across Great Britain.

All day volunteering opportunities,
learning how to care for the horses, were
offered 2-3 days per week on our yard,
open to volunteers including those with
disabilities. Time spent outside in the
open air, and helping to exercise the
horses helps to increase physical and
mental well-being.

We have organised advanced coaches to
help deliver vaulting and riding sessions-
as well as mechanical horse simulator
sessions to help riders to be able to
progress and achieve their own aims.

A grant for a new wooden building and
equipment to level the arena surface this
year has improved access to heavy
**equipment for volunteers for vaulting **

sessions, allowing the equipment to be stored right beside the arena, and the arena surface to be levelled regularly making it possible to safely exercise the horses and run more activities at home. A revenue grant for a part time staff member for 12 months has facilitated an increase in the number of volunteers we could enroll, as well as increased our income through eBay sales of items gifted to our charity for sale for general funds that we could not use.

Achievements against
objectives set

Para 1.41


 We increased our services by expanding
the number of RDA riding and vaulting
sessions we held on Mondays,
Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays,
allowing us to take on new beneficiaries.
‘Tea with a pony’ activities (aiming to
improve mental well-being) continued
and over 120 people took part in these
activities.


Performance of fundraising
activities against objectives
set

Para 1.41		 Partial Site improvement was achieved
through 2 grants, making activities
possible at our home venue and
improving the site for ease of our
volunteers and beneficiaries. Further
grants have been sought to continue site
improvement for wheelchair users and
those with mobility aids.


Investment performance

Financial review

Review of the charity’s
financial position at the end
of the period		 Para 1.21 The bank balance on 31st December was
£12,525.04
Total income:£40,101.81
Total expenditure:£52,194.95
£7,302.96 of expenditure was depreciation
of assets
Actual expenditure was £44,891.99
Statement explaining the
policy for holding reserves
stating why they are held		 Para 1.22 Trustees agreed a reserve policy of 4-6
months running costs, to ensure enough
reserves in the event of unexpected bills
such as vet bills or vehicle repairs
Amount of reserves held Para 1.22 £6,364.72 restricted reserves
£6,160.32 unrestricted reserves
Reasons for holding zero
reserves		 Para 1.22
Details of fund materially in
deficit		 Para 1.24 There was a deficit of £12,093.14 - of
which £7,302.96 was depreciation of
assets and the remainder was due to
unexpected high repair costs of the
group’s vehicle (£3,520.95) rising costs of
hiring facilities (£10,360.80) for activities
meaning we ran at a loss for sessions and
rising insurance and general horse
**related costs, eg bedding. **
Explanation of any
uncertainties about the
charity continuing as a going
concern		 Para 1.23 Grants have been written to replace our
current truck which had incurred
unexpected costs to keep it running.
Once a replacement truck has been
purchased we intend to sell the current
truck to help with costs of servicing the
replacement vehicle in 2025.

Measures have been put in place to keep
winter costs for horse care to a
minimum, with 3 horses staying in the
arena over night during winter months
with haylage feeding points, rather than
stabled- helping to reduce costs of
bedding. 3 horses owned by a trustee are
on “sessional loan” to the group and
their costs therefore paid for by the
owner. 1 new horse to the group this
year, is also on sessional loan, and all
costs paid for by the owner.
1 of our horses is on full loan at Penycoed
riding stables, all his costs paid for by the
riding stables.
1 of our other horses has gone on full
loan to a volunteer in December and all
her costs are paid for by the volunteer.

Plans have been made to run more
activities at home in 2025, meaning any
donations from riders would go directly to
our funds, rather than to the riding
establishments where we hire horses and
facilities, where we have run at a loss this
year.

This plan will involve training of
volunteers to ensure our horses at home
are fit enough and schooled enough for
the riders’ needs, but will ensure we
remain financially sustainable.

Fundraising efforts have taken place and
we plan for an increase in stalls and
events in 2025 which we believe will
greatly increase this funding stream by at
least 3 times the current level- thanks to
our dedicated volunteers who run them.
Ebay and jewellery sales have produced a
steady income, as well as donation tins in
various shops and locations.

The charity’s principal
sources of funds (including
any fundraising)

Para 1.47		 56% of our income came from Grants in
2024
24% came from beneficiaries
20% came from our fundraising efforts
and general donations


Investment policy and
objectives including any
social investment policy
adopted

Para 1.46


A description of the principal
risks facing the charity

Para 1.46		 We need more coaches to ensure we
don’t have to cancel sessions if a coach
is ill or on holiday. As all our coaches are
volunteers, we may lose their help if they
move on to paid employment elsewhere.

Horse vet bills cannot be predicted and
can be costly.

We continue to rely on grants and
fundraising to sustain our charity without
putting up the cost of sessions to our
members.

We need more trustees as majority of our
current trustees intend to retire in 2025

Other

 The rising costs of living mean our
beneficiaries are facing increasing costs,
and we therefore do not wish to raise our
fees- and so we aim to plan more
activities at our home venue, and less
activities at hired facilities to reduce our
costs, making us more sustainable.

Structure, governance and management

Description of charity’s trusts:
Type of governing document:
for example,trust deed,
memorandum and articles of
association etc		 Para 1.25
 Membership constitution RDA
How is the charity
constituted?
for example limited company,

Policies and procedures
adopted for the induction and
training of trustees

Para 1.51		 New trustees must be given the RDA
‘welcome
pack’
which
signposts
prospective trustees to relevant charity
commission website.
The charity’s organisational
structure and any wider
network with which the
charity works

Para 1.51		 Calon RDA is a member group of RDA U.K
and promotes the objects of this national
charity. However we are a charity in our
own right and are governed by our own
trustees.


Relationship with any related
parties

Para 1.51		 The group has a 10 year agreement (last
renewed in 2023) with one of the trustees
for free use of the site for RDA activities
and free use of the arena, stables and
grazing for horses used by the group. Site
utility costs are paid for by the owner, and
any building or equipment bought by the
group remain the property of the group as
part of the agreement. Any decisions
regarding the site are therefore a conflict
of interest for the owner, and any
decisions are declared as such and the
owner does not take part in discussions
regarding these decisions nor have a vote
upon them.
