All donations directly benefit our participants and horses (none of our volunteers or trustees are paid) and even a small donation goes a long way and there are many ways you can help:

Sponsorships can be provided by individuals or corporations to contribute towards the annual running costs of Quest RDA, to purchase new ponies, support major events hosted by Quest or specific initiatives to extend or improve our services.

The different types of sponsorship are listed below under three categories –specific annual costs directly associated with our ponies,  major events and new projects and initiatives.

If you are interested in making a donation to help with our annual running costs, please contact us at fundraising@questrda.org

Quest RDA normally holds a ball once every two years.  It is our single most important and prestigious fundraising event and is attended by around 200 people.  Our recent guest speakers at this event have been – Sophie Christiansen CBE, winner of eight gold medals at the Paralympics who also gained 5th place in the BBC Sports Personality of the Year 2016, Mary King MBE who has been a stalwart of the British Eventing Team having represented Great Britain at six Olympic Games as well as numerous World and European Championships and Alastair Stewart the newscaster and presenter.

With the sponsor’s permission we can offer PR opportunities.  These would include posting the sponsors name, logo, and brief message on our website and on our other social media (Facebook and Instagram); we can help produce a joint press release for general use and on our own press release for specific local media we can refer to any sponsor.  At the ball event itself we can acknowledge any sponsor on the ball programme/menu with a short message as well as on any posters/banners at the venue and on any materials distributed for marketing purposes ahead of the ball.

Each year we hold a Quest RDA Sponsored Ride.  This is one of our major fund-raising events and attracts riders from Surrey, Berkshire and Hampshire.  Each rider pays an entrance fee and may also have sponsors.  The event is held at the Bisley and Sandown Chase Pony Club field on Dunstall Green near Chobham.  Three different trails are set out across Chobham Common (2, 5 and 12 miles) so that riders of all abilities can participate.  The event attracts around 150 riders and several hundred supporters also attend and can enjoy other events and activities set up on the field.

With the sponsors permission we can offer PR opportunities similar to those referenced for the Ball.
