What an honour to be asked to represent RDA NI at the Dublin Horse Show as part of the RDAI Parade. 🐴🍀

Thirty-one RDA groups, along with their horses, volunteers and RDA riders from all over Ireland, came together to parade around the arena, cheered on by a hugely enthusiastic crowd.

What an atmosphere! It was a truly special experience and a very proud moment to represent RDA NI. 😊

A huge thank you to everyone who made the day so memorable — an honour to be part of such an incredible RDA family. 🐴❤️ Thank you RDAI

What a fantastic morning yesterday at our first day of RDA Give It A Go Summer Scheme!

It was wonderful to see so many happy faces enjoying their time with us. A huge thank you to all our volunteers, coaches, and the Pony Club Gang who turned out to help make the day so special and bring smiles to all our participants.

Special thanks also to Laurelview Equestrian Centre and their wonderful RDA horses – Matilda, Keady, Toby, Guinness, and Marley – who, as always, did a fantastic job.

We are already looking forward to the next

Wishing our adult riders good luck as they will be competing in both dressage and countryside challenge throughout the morning.
We are also looking forward to seeing Thornfield school riders who will be competing in Country side challenge, they have been working hard over the last 5 weeks practising. They have produced this beautiful painting which is entered in the arts and crafts competition. Good luck to all of you on Wednesday.
