VOLUNTEER ROLES
There are multiple roles for volunteers at RDA. If you'd like to work with horses and you can help 2-4 hours each week or fortnight on a weekday or on a Saturday then please contact us. Volunteers working with horses undergo Stage 1 Induction Training and Stage 2 Basic Training. After significant time as a volunteer there can be progression to Stage 3 Competency Training. If you prefer other roles then volunteers can help with fundraising, events, gardening, administration, photography and more. Volunteers not working with horses undergo Stage 1 Induction Training.
