Lockdowns mean some lonely horses

From Afternoons, 1:40 pm on 4 October 2021

Volunteers for the organisation Riding for the Disabled have been finding the latest outbreak a little tough.

It was a challenge to look after horses during the Level 4 lockdown, and now during Auckland's Level 3 volunteers can exercise them again but kids can't be there to ride them.

Donna Kennedy the CEO of NZ Riding for the Disabled talks to Jesse about how the lack of riders impacts both their staff and horses.
