Please check your insurance - every competitor needs public liability cover. This is for your own protection in case your animal causes loss or damage. We recommend riders have their own cover in case of accident too.

Sometimes a society membership includes suitable insurance cover. BHS Gold Membership also offers cover for most activities. Please check your insurance is in date.
