Donate a Horse

Want to donate a horse?

Our horse team members are usually between 12.2hh and 15.3hh, over the age of 8yo and are of various breeds.

Horses come to us in various ways either as a long loan, gift or through a purchase arrangement following a trial period for the right horse.

Each horse is fed and rugged twice daily according to their needs and have access to grassy paddocks and any supplements that they may need to assist them in their general health and wellbeing.

Horses have their feet attended to each 5 – 6 weeks and our barefoot trimmer is onsite once a week. Our Dentist also visits twice a year or as required for dental work.

Our Vets are always just a phone call away and they are cared for by our experienced staff.

Potential horses go through a trial period of 6-12 weeks or longer depending on the horse where we assess their temperament and suitability to the work that we do in RDA.

Our Community

Great place for young people with disabilities to learn how to ride and gain fine and gross motor skills

Great facility, great people doing amazing work with those of us who are less fortunate

Very professionally run program....lovely people....and the horses are beautiful!

This program has benefited her so much. Even years ago, when she barely left the house, and we had to start homeschooling, this was a constant for her. Even then we had days where we had to cancel due to her anxiety. Now to see her go without anxiety, communicate with the volunteers on her own (I've actively tried to step back) and even cope with trotting (previously a lot of movement would cause panic). It is nothing short of amazing.

Great work done by great people

Excellent initiative

Fantastic people and facilities.

Being a parent of a special needs child can bring many challenges and at times can be isolating. Tall Timbers give endless benefits to the participants and their families.
