Reminder: the welfare of our horses and ponies is paramount

In light of the recent publicity surrounding a high profile rider we would like to remind all members to ensure that they put the welfare of their horses and ponies at the forefront of their minds at all times. As a sport we pride ourselves on the excellent welfare standards demonstrated by competitors. It is vital that this continues to ensure that the public remains comfortable with our sport. Please ensure that you are always conducting yourselves appropriately at both events and at home. We will be monitoring carefully and attempting to educate and advise where necessary, please take this on board, it’s for the good of the horses and our sport as a whole. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns

Thank you.
