ON the eve of the 2018 Stena Line Dublin Horse Show at the RDS, many of Ireland’s top show jumping riders and team manager Rodrigo Pessoa, were today joined by members of the Riding for the Disabled Association Ireland (RDAI) at the RDS to raise awareness of the work carried out by RDAI and the services they offer.

Frankie Griffin from the Riding for the Disabled Association Ireland said: “This morning at the RDS our riders and their families were so proud to meet their show jumping stars. It will stay with them for a long time. We have 50 groups, riding an average of 700 riders per week. We can always do with more volunteers, they don’t need “horse knowledge” we train them and update it every two years.”
