Story

The British Horse Society promotes and protects everything dear to you and your horse. For 70 years The Society has been a strong equestrian voice. We'll continue supporting horses and riders, and you can too.

Road Safety: Too many horses and riders are being killed or injured on UK roads. Over the past year there have been over 1,000 incident reports on our roads involving horses; 180 have been injured and 46 killed - but we know only one in ten incidents are reported. We are dedicated to improving the safety of UK riders.

Riding Out: We're dedicated to enhancing and maintaining the UKs equestrian access network. We defend endangered rights of way for riders and carriage drivers with multi-user routes across the UK being improved, preserved, and reinstated making a huge difference to the community.

Horse Welfare: The BHS responds to over 6,000 welfare cases each year, but there are a thousand more in need of help. We work hard to promote the prevention of neglect, cruelty and harm to horses and provide support, advice and education to horse owners to try and remedy problems before they become too serious.

Future Generations: Horses have a powerful way of inspiring disengaged young people to reconnect with society. Our Changing Lives through Horses programme aims to improve the lives of disengaged young people and give them the opportunity to develop skills that enable them to return to education and/or employment.
