People cannot imagine how limiting life can be for the disabled and how few opportunities they get to take part in normal activities that able bodied people take for granted. Giving a disabled person the gift of learning to ride a horse, and being able to wear Toggi jodhpurs just like the other riders, will give him a sense of pride and importance. Some riding schools may be able to supply second hand jodhpurs and other riding gear for these youngsters. Having a special collection of second hand clothing from all the riding schools will make a big difference in the lives of these special needs children.
This will avoid the rider shifting around in the saddle trying to get the pants she is wearing not to pull down at the back or the legs to slide up while she is trying to concentrate. A well fitted pair of jodhpurs makes all the difference, especially in competitions.
There are many other activities they volunteer in, but one of them is leading the horses and in many cases physically supporting the more severely disabled children on the horse. There is a carefully structured program which allows every child 40 hours free-of-charge riding therapy a year. What an amazing sacrifice these volunteers make to improve the lives of these children.
Dehydration is something that can happen with a horse very quickly on a hot summer day. The rider should always make sure there is enough fresh, clean water for the horse to drink at all times. When they return to the stable after a gallop in the fields, the horse should be allowed to cool down properly and given as much water as it needs.
Sometimes when travelling to shows or competitions, the horses may be reluctant to drink water. The owner can try and overcome this by flavoring the water with mint or apple juice. There are also special products on the market designed to help getting a horse to drink water.
Looking forward to going to horse riding every week must bring new light into their limited lives. What a wonderful way to contribute to the development of these children and how rewarding to know you have made a difference in someone special's life. Encouraging our able bodied teenagers to volunteer at a place like this will give them deeper insight into a different world and a new appreciation for the healthy bodies they have been given.
There are many horse riders who will not ride in the rain because they think it is dangerous, or are just not willing to try because they are afraid. Fear is a challenging thing in the world of horse riding. Some say they are afraid because they don't want to move forward or do things they are scared to do.
The rider will be dressed to impress in her Toggi jodhpurs and other attire. Both rider and horse may go on to win a trophy or two, or perhaps walk away with all the trophies of the day. Confidence and trust, not fear and insecurity are the tools needed to create a winning team.
