Follifoot Park Disabled Riders Group

Follifoot Park Disabled Riders Group We are an independent charity providing riding and carriage driving for disabled children and adults

The Group was originally formed in 1986 and became an independent charity in 1994. Julie Pedley, the owner of Follifoot Park Riding Centre, and our founding Chairman, Rosie Towers, wanted to offer disabled riders the unique benefits of horse riding so Rosie decided to recruit the necessary helpers. Thanks to her dedicated efforts we now have 150 volunteers who help to provide 17 regular Rides each

week in groups of up to seven disabled people. During the past 26 years, hundreds of riders, young and adult, have enjoyed this opportunity. Our continuing aim is to provide more opportunities for disabled people to enjoy the unique benefits and pleasures of riding and carriage driving with us.
