About this yard
Erme Valley RDA operates from The Brook near Ivybridge, five minutes from the A38 in the South Hams. The group is in its fortieth year and currently teaches around 160 riders, each with physical, cognitive, sensory or social disorders. A member of the Riding for the Disabled Association and accredited by BHS and ABRS, Erme Valley runs both group sessions and individual sessions for riders preparing for competition or who need targeted support. For SEN students in mainstream education, sessions can replace PE lessons and count towards the National Curriculum. The organisation is non-commercial, supported by donations and the local community.

What to wear
Standard guidance for equestrian yards in the UK. Check with your yard if you're unsure.
A correctly fitted hat to current safety standards (PAS 015 or VG1). Bicycle helmets are not permitted. Hats are available to hire, usually reserved for first-time riders.
Boots with a small heel, riding boots, walking boots or wellies all work. Trainers and flat-soled shoes are not permitted for safety reasons.
Close-fitting, weather-appropriate clothes. Shoulders and legs must be covered, no vest tops or shorts. Jackets and coats should be fastened securely. Waterproofs are recommended for outdoor lessons.
Long hair should be tied back in a ponytail before putting on your helmet. All jewellery must be removed before riding.
Clients arriving in unsuitable clothing or footwear may not be permitted to ride, for their own safety. If in doubt, contact the yard before your visit.
