Horse Leader – Riding for the Disabled, Te Aroha
At Riding for the Disabled, our purpose is simple. We use the power of horses to make a difference in people’s lives. For children and adults living with a disability or facing challenges, riding can build confidence, grow self-esteem, enhance communication skills, and help build meaningful relationships. Every moment of progress, big or small, is worth celebrating.
We are looking for caring people to join our team as Horse Leaders. In this role, you’ll be guiding the horses during riding sessions, making sure each rider has a safe, enjoyable, and empowering experience. You won’t be doing this alone — every rider is also supported by a coach and another volunteer, so you’re always part of a friendly, supportive team.
Here’s how you’ll make a difference
We’re a well-organised, welcoming group, and we’d love to have some new people join our team. By becoming a Horse Leader, you’ll not only help our riders grow — you’ll find the experience is deeply rewarding for you too.
