Enjoy the chance to own a lovely printed miniature reproduction of the Bayeux Tapestry - and also help disabled children.


The Prize

The Bayeux Tapestry tells the dramatic story of the events leading up to the Norman Conquest of England in 1066, culminating in the Battle of Hastings and William the Conqueror's victory over King Harold. Far more than a work of art, it is an extraordinary visual narrative and one of the most important historical sources for the period.

The Cause

Proceeds from the prize draw will support Riding for the Disabled Association (RDA) Abingdon Group, a charity that provides therapeutic horse riding and carriage driving for disabled children and adults. Through riding, participants develop confidence, independence, balance, coordination and communication skills, while enjoying the physical and emotional benefits of spending time with horses.

They cater to diverse disabilities, including cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, spina bifida, muscular dystrophy, and learning difficulties.
