Riding school in South-Holland have opened their doors again. Disabled riders however can not start riding yet. These riders therefore are very disappointed. 


The biggest problem is that disabled riders can not ride outside. Not only for safety precautions since the horses can not scare or run away. Besides that, the riders need to be put on their horses using a lift. These riders also need more than one trainer to help them, which is not possible in the Netherlands yet.
