Come and join a day of training to keep you safer on the roads. This training will conclude with testing for the BHS Silver Challenge Award or Bronze Award and is for adults and children over 8 years old.
NOTE: The Silver Award is for Riders minimum age 12.
The Bronze award will be given to riders who are successful under the age of 12 or for older riders who are not yet confident or competent on the road in handling their horse or pony.
The day will help give you the skills and understanding to keep you safe when riding on the roads, in open spaces and in busy warm-up arenas.
