PETERBOROUGH AND DISTRICT RIDING FOR THE DISABLED ASSOCIATION 

We provide riding instruction for children and young people with disabilities and/or special needs.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is completely female

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
