As a registered charity, we do not receive any public funding. Our income from lessons does not cover our costs and historically we have managed to balance our books through kind benefactors and timely donations. Additionally, we undertake fundraising and apply for small grants etc, but we are mindful that there are many worthy causes all vying for attention and support, especially since the Covid-19 pandemic. If you’d like to support the valuable work that Blairgowrie RDA does in the local community, there are many ways you can help us:
- volunteer
- make a donation
- nominate us as your workplace charity
- sponsor us as a local business
- leave us a bequest
- sign up to our monthly Clip Clop Club 100 Prize Draw
- support our fundraising activities including our balloon race and annual bake sale – we have some very talented bakers among our volunteers!
Please contact us if you would like to find out more about how you could support our work.

Through the Amazon Smile charity, we will receive 0.5% of the net purchase price (excluding VAT, returns and shipping fees) of all eligible purchases made by our supporters.
All you have to do is visit smile.amazon.co.uk, nominate Blairgowrie Riding for the Disabled as your chosen charity and then continue shopping.
