I'm looking at volunteering for a local RDA group to not only plump up my personal statement a bit, but to also get a bit of my confidence back with just being around horses and get me out of the house a bit!
I've been on the RDA website and it didn't say much about how people find it volunteering, so if anyone here does it, I'd be grateful for what you think of it etc. Also, I don't know how to find one that's near me - I looked on the 'find us' part of the website but all of them are too far away, even though they're (some only technically) in Bucks. Is it worth ringing the riding schools that I can get to and asking them if they do it?
I saw one that was a reasonable distance away but was adults only (in the evenings, so better for that as well, though I need to check with other commitments) - what's an adult only group like? I had an imagine of them not really needing as many helpers as a childrens group, purely because of balance and stuff; I hope I haven't just made a mass generalisation
