Gaddesden Place RDA is celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2024! And we have some exciting events and fundraisers planned to help celebrate all the amazing achievements of our riders, ponies and supporters from the last 50 years.

Read about our plans below, and please do get in contact if you fancy getting involved!

50 for 50 fundraising campaign

Are you up to the challenge of 50 for 50?

Our exciting fundraiser challenges you/your team to accomplish and get sponsorship for 50 things, no matter how big or small, to fundraise for our 50^th Anniversary.

From small acts of kindness to daring feats of courage, every effort counts. It could be to walk, ride, run, swim 50 miles/km/laps, play 50 golf holes, a sponsored silence for 50 hours, make and sell 50 cupcakes… you get the idea!

Whatever your idea, ‘sign up and join in’ using the link below to make your own sponsorship page that you can share with family and friends: Select here to create your own fundraiser

Together, we can turn 50 small gestures into a giant leap for a wonderful cause! Get involved and let the fundraising fun begin!
