Horse Riding for the Disabled

J was awarded a certificate and medal yesterday, for his improvement in horse riding.
He attended nearly every week with his school, but now the summer holidays are nearly upon us, and with his transition to secondary school in September, he may not have an opportunity to ride again.

The medal has his name and date engraved on the back.
A note book was also given to me, which recorded each session he had, what he had done, any new skill he had mastered such as "woah" to slow the horse, and the joy he expressed when on the horse.

J loves nature and animals, so being outdoors, sitting aloft a horse, trotting around, he would be in his element.


I have disguised the riding school's name for privacy reasons, and have covered his name for the same reason.
