We were very saddened to hear of the passing of Jools Topp.
Jools was a wonderful supporter of KWRC, a long-time show sponsor. “Topp Trail” was an event we held, and she was also a valued past member. Her love of horses and genuine passion for the equestrian community was always evident, and she will be remembered fondly by many.
Our thoughts are with her family, friends, and all those whose lives she touched.
Rest in peace, Jools.

Last weekend, we held our annual AGM at The Hive Bar and Restaurant. A huge thank you to the team there for accommodating us again this year — your support of our club is always greatly appreciated.

Thank you also to all our members who attended and continue to support KWRC throughout the year.

The new committee would first like to acknowledge and thank last year’s committee for all the hard work, time, and dedication they put into the club. A lot happens behind the scenes to keep things running, and we truly appreciate everything they contributed over the past season.
