A local horse-riding charity for disabled children and young people has been given a £1,500 grant from Tesco Hemel Hempstead.
Gaddesden Place Riding for the Disabled Association (RDA) will use the funding to continue offering therapeutic horse-riding sessions that improve young people’s physical and emotional wellbeing, build confidence, and provide an inclusive and supportive environment for disabled riders.
The grant is part of Tesco’s Stronger Starts campaign – an £8million grant programme in partnership with the charity Groundwork UK.
Trisha Glenister, community champion at Tesco Hemel Hempstead, said: “We are thrilled to support such a fantastic local charity.
“Gaddesden Place RDA provides invaluable opportunities for children to thrive, and we hope this donation will make a real difference.”
Sarah Reid, chair of Gaddesden Place RDA, said: “We are thrilled to have been chosen to receive this kind donation from Tesco. Their continued support is greatly appreciated and will play a vital role in enabling the essential work we do at RDA, with a focus on our motto: ‘It’s what you can do that counts.’”
