The National Equine Show has shared that Riding for the Disabled Association (RDA) is the event’s Charity of the Year for 2027.
The fifth edition of the National Equine Show will be held at the NEC, Birmingham, on 27-28 February 2027, providing equestrian enthusiasts with two days of features, talks, shopping, fun, and the opportunity to learn more and get involved with some incredible charities and organisations, such as RDA.
“RDA is a huge force for good in the equestrian world, and we’re excited to be able to showcase the work it does,” said Liz Ormesher, Event Director of the National Equine Show. “RDA’s work is incredible and far-reaching, with the participants benefiting directly from the tireless support of the charity as well as the network of volunteers who do so much. We’re really pleased to be able to help people understand more about this work and give visitors the chance to find out more at the event.”
“We are absolutely delighted to be the official charity partner for the National Equine Show 2027,” said Michael Bishop, CEO of RDA. “The support of the organisers, exhibitors, participants, and visitors will play a vital role in helping us reach even more disabled people through the life-changing power of horses.
“This partnership is a fantastic opportunity not only to raise essential funds for our work, but also to increase awareness of the incredible difference horses can make to people’s confidence, wellbeing and independence. We are excited about what we can achieve together and look forward to an inspiring year ahead. Thank you to everyone who gets behind RDA and helps us make a difference.”
