We couldn’t run without our fabulous volunteers. Thank you all !

⭐Volunteers’ Week is back and it’s time to celebrate!⭐

From supporting local clubs, competitions and camps to assisting with national championships - come rain or shine they always do it with a smile. Without the time, energy and commitment of our volunteers, British Riding Clubs simply would not be possible.

This week, we celebrate YOU — our wonderful British Riding Club volunteers. 🙌

Know the signs and do the right thing !

Be alert: equine flu cases are rising in the UK.

Recent reports show a sudden increase in equine influenza outbreaks this month. A reminder of how quickly this highly contagious illness can spread.

Knowing the signs and acting quickly can help protect your horse and others on your yard.

Look out for:
🌡️ A temperature above 38.5°C
🐴 A frequent dry, harsh cough
💧 Nasal discharge
🥕 Loss of appetite
💤 Lethargy
🩺 Swollen or painful glands around the jaw
🌾 Gagging when eating

If you notice any of these signs, isolate your horse straight away and contact your vet promptly.
