This time we are raising funds for the British Equestrians for Ukraine appeal as well as towards our own goal to build a much needed indoor arena here in Shetland for equestrian and other multi use purposes.

Shetland Indoor Arena Ltd (SIA Ltd) plan to construct a multi-purpose indoor facility which will provide a vital resource for Shetlands equestrian community, as well as a number of other key organisations. We will create a safe, modern space which will allow the growth of equestrian sports in Shetland, providing riders with year-round access to training facilities, and enable groups to access world class trainers and experts to develop the sport. The facility will serve as a focal point for equestrian activity, including veterinary, therapy, equine dentistry, and saddlery and farriery services. The project is to construct an indoor riding facility with associated spaces at a site on the Cunningsburgh Show Ground. This facility will meet all accessibility requirements and will increase access to equestrian sports both by improving accessibility and by extending the riding season to all year round. The facility will include a 60m x 40m riding arena with appropriate surface and lighting,
