Waverley Driving Group RDA

Waverley Driving Group RDA Waverley Driving Group RDA provides a carriage driving experience to disabled people from a wide area around its Radlett, Hertfordhire base.

Everyone's heard of the RDA - Riding for the Disabled. Perhaps less well known are the groups that provide Carriage Driving for the Disabled. Affiliated to the RDA, these groups provide a similar purpose but are aimed at those people unable to ride but who can still benefit from the experience of involvement with horses and ponies, sometimes without leaving their wheelchair. Waverley Driving Group is one of these. Founded in 1982, we have a small band of regular volunteers and we're based near Radlett in Hertfordshire but have people coming to us from a wide area. Needless to say, we could do with more regular committed volunteers who have equine experience. The more volunteers, the better service we can provide. The Group is a Registered Charity, Number 1074197

Sadly, Waverley Driving Group RDA is currently not operating.
We're so sorry not to be able to take people out for carriage drives.
Should circumstances change we will let you know.

Unfortunately, due to the current Covid-19 restrictions, we are unable to operate and have no idea when this situation will change.
We hope all our participants and volunteers are well and that we shall be able to meet up again soon.
