🌟 Volunteer with Riding for the Disabled – Make a Difference Every Week! 🌟

Location: North of the Isle of Man

Are you kind, friendly, and looking to give a little of your time to make a big difference?

The Isle of Man branch of Riding for the Disabled is looking for volunteers to help at our regular weekly riding sessions held at a professional riding school in the north of the Island.

🐴 No experience needed – just a willingness to help and a positive attitude!  Whether you’ve worked with horses or supported people with disabilities before, or you're completely new – we’d love to hear from you. Full guidance and support will be provided.

Volunteer sessions:  

Tuesdays – anytime between 9:30am and 3:00pm
Fridays – 5:00pm to 7:00pm

You can volunteer for a full session or just part of it – whatever time you can offer is appreciated!

What you’ll be doing:  

- Helping riders get ready for their sessions
- Walking alongside riders during lessons to support and encourage them
- Offering a smile, a helping hand, and friendly encouragement

It’s a rewarding role where you’ll get to see the confidence, joy, and friendships that grow through every ride.

🌼 We also welcome help with fundraising events, like coffee mornings, local fairs, and big public events such as the Island’s agricultural shows.

💼 Volunteering is a brilliant way to build your CV and grow your skills – especially for young people. You’ll gain valuable experience in:

- Teamwork
- Communication
- Responsibility and reliability
- Problem-solving
- Time management

All while supporting a great cause and meeting new people

Join our team and help change lives – one ride at a time.🐎
