🧡 GOOD IN THE HOOD – VOTE FOR EAST OTAGO RDA AT Z PALMERSTON! 🐴

We’re very excited to share that East Otago Riding for the Disabled has been selected as one of the local community groups for Z’s Good in the Hood 2026!

From 18 August to 14 September, pop into Z Palmerston and when you make a purchase in-store, you’ll receive an orange token to vote for one of four local groups. 🧡

Z Palmerston has $5,000 to give to the four selected community groups, and your votes determine how that money is shared – so every token dropped into the East Otago RDA box really does make a difference! 🐴💛

Funding like this helps us continue providing therapeutic riding opportunities in our local community and supports the ongoing care of the wonderful horses who make our programme possible.

So if you’re passing through Palmerston, call into Z, grab yourself something and please pop your orange token in the East Otago RDA box! And remember – you can vote again each time you make a purchase during the promotion. 🙌

Please share this post and help us spread the word. Let’s see how many orange tokens our amazing community can collect! 🧡🐴

A huge thank you to Z Palmerston and Z Energy’s Good in the Hood for supporting local organisations like ours.

We are on the search for any kids riding boots you might have lying around that you would like to donate to us.

They do need to still have stitching that holds them together, no talking boots please. All sizes considered and greatly appreciated.

The more we learn about horses, the more extraordinary they become. 💙
