The year 2000 saw the launch of the first British Horse Society Fundraising Riding Challenge. Since then the challenges have gone from strength to strength. These challenges raise money for the BHS Welfare Fund.
The British Horse Society produces a useful publication entitled ‘Bed and Breakfast for Horses’, which lists establishments in the UK where you are able to take your horse on holiday. ‘Bed and Breakfast for Horses’ is available to buy through the BHS bookshop, call 01926 707762 for more information.
