YELA is a new and exciting award that has been developed by Riding for the Disabled (RDA) for the British Equestrian Federation (BEF) in consultation with many of its Member Bodies to increase and encourage the number of young people volunteering in the Equestrian industry.
The award runs over three progressive levels increasing from 20hours to achieve the Bronze standard up to 120hours to achieve the Gold Standard.
The award is open to all young people between the ages of 13 and 25. They must fully complete an application form and send it back to head office and their log book will be issued to them. No hours may be back dated.
Hours may be counted from volunteering with any BEF Member Body – Please see the BEF website for a full list.
For more information, application forms or centre registration please contact Katy Downing at RDA on 01926 405977
