Thousands of pounds in ill-gotten cash seized from drug dealers will be given to a stable supporting disabled jockeys.
Since the start of last year, Liverpool Crown Court has handed over monies taken from criminals to a charity of the month as part of Operation Payback. The selected good cause for June will be Rainhill-based East Liverpool RDA, which provides horse riding lessons for children and adults with disabilities.
Chairman Natalie Burns said: "The stables and the programmes are developed to be accessible for people with a range of disabilities and we welcome participants and volunteers from across the region. Our charity offers a wide range of activities with a horse or pony at the heart of each activity.
