Please be aware that released balloons eventually fall out of the sky as rubbish and pose a hazard to wildlife. This balloon was found beside a regularly used deer trail in #EppingForest. Deer are inquisitive animals and may get tangled in such litter.

"Sport and physical activity can make a real difference in disabled people's lives."

1/2: This week sees high temperatures.
Please be reminded that you can not use barbecues or light fires anywhere in the Forest, at any time, for obvious reasons.
Please do not drop litter in the ancient woodland, discarded litter & glass bottles can also cause fires.

Happy Deaf Awareness Week! 🎉
Sport should be accessible to everyone, and we are working hard to ensure that equestrian activities can be accessed by everyone with a disability, including those who are deaf or have a hearing impairment.

In 2015 David Amess was awarded a knighthood for political and public service. How did the newly-knighted Sir David celebrate?
He got dressed up and released this brilliant photo echo-news.co.uk/news/1337479…

Thanks to @LauraScott__ and @BBCNews for highlighting the importance of the work of @RDAnational and the impact that the pandemic is having on the people we support
To some this is sport, to others it is vital therapy. For this family it’s a lifeline that so many others have lost.
My report from this evening’s @BBCNews at 6 on the impact of coronavirus on the Riding for the Disabled Association, featuring Princess Anne.
