We are the only charity in Singapore that provides equine-assisted therapeutic sessions free of charge.

Registered Charity


Winner of Charity Transparency Award 2017 - 2019 and 2022

RDA Singapore was founded in 1982, with just 5 riders and a whole lot of heart. Since then, more than 7,000 disabled children and adults have experienced the benefits of the therapy that our horses and ponies so lovingly provide.

RDA Singapore is a registered charity and Institution of a Public Character (IPC); UEN No: S82SS0081H. Since our inception in 1982, we have provided equine-assisted therapeutic sessions to more than 7,000 physically and mentally disabled beneficiaries. We have seen beneficiaries who can sit up longer, walk unaided or who have become more sociable after riding with RDA Singapore. These may seem like minor achievements to most able-bodied people, but to those with disabilities, these are life-changing feats.

Our therapeutic sessions are provided to our beneficiaries free of charge.


We are a British Horse Society Approved Riding Centre

Annually, RDA Singapore needs about $1.2 million to maintain the centre, and the horses and ponies.

RDA Singapore is not fully funded by the government and is dependent on the generosity of the public to help us to continue doing what we do. Your generous donation (any amount would be greatly appreciated) will help us to keep serving our disabled beneficiaries.
