RDA Brigadoon is a not-for-profit organisation that harnesses the therapeutic power of horses to transform the physical health and emotional well-being of children, young people and adults with diverse abilities and mental health issues.
​
We are affiliated with the internationally recognised Riding for the Disabled Association Australia and as such all our coaches are nationally accredited.
​
We currently offer the following equine supported activities: horse riding and our horse interaction program. All lessons are instructed by our fully trained and accredited coaches who are supported by our team of trained volunteers. We can engage with plan or self-managed NDIS clients as well as privately funded clients.
We currently have 14 accredited horses that are used in our program ranging from Shetland ponies to Clydesdales.
​
Our riding lessons operate 5 days per week, Tuesday to Saturday while our horse interaction program sessions operate on Fridays. Our sessions operate during the school terms while during the school holidays we operate a series of fundraising day camps where lots of fun is had for all ages and abilities.
