At a time when volunteers can be hard to find, six Samford RDA volunteers are marking over a decade of service to our organisation.
Jane Marsh, Rod Growder and Kerry Hill have each clocked up more than 15 years as RDA volunteers, while Ida and Ash Knight and Stuart Coutts each have over 10 years of service behind them. In addition, Don Valentine, Kate Couper, Justin Osborne and Sam Wakerley have volunteered in various roles at RDA over the past five years.
To recognise this dedication, Samford RDA recently presented the volunteers with long-service name badges and sincere thanks for their many years of support.
Without volunteers, we would not be able to provide our vital services to children and adults with a disability – and our valued volunteers range from secondary school students to retirees.
Samford RDA offers an opportunity for people to be involved with horses, either caring for them or supporting horse and rider during riding sessions. There are also plenty of non-horse activities such as grounds management and gardening, maintaining equipment, seeking sponsorships and assisting with administration.
Volunteering is a great way to meet people, stay fit and make a real difference to the lives of people with a disability. New volunteers are always welcome, with volunteer induction sessions conducted regularly.
Anyone interested in volunteering during the 2025 Samford RDA program, which has just started, should email admin@samfordrda.com.au for more details.
