Other notes

It is vital that parents fully disclose their child/young person’s SEND needs at the time of booking with the Aiming High booking office, so that we know what kinds of adjustments we need to make to accommodate those riding with us. Full disclosure will not stop your child from riding, so please be upfront with us about their needs.
