All Welcome
From beginners to experienced riders. All ages, all disciplines, all horses and ponies welcome. No riding required.
Truly inclusive and we mean it
Our challenges are designed so that no horse owner, rider, or equestrian feels left out. Whether you ride, drive, do groundwork, or simply love spending time with your horse - you belong here.
Non-riders are welcome. Lesson riders are welcome. Shetlands, ponies, cobs, and horses on rehabilitation are welcome. If your horse time matters to you, it counts.
Horse Owners
Set structured goals for you and your horse, try new activities, and maintain consistency.
Loan, Share and Lesson Riders
Don't own a horse? No problem. Whether you loan, share, or take lessons, you're very welcome to join.
Carriage Drivers
Driving counts just as much as riding. All turnouts and harness work welcome.
Groundwork and In-Hand
Time on the ground with your horse is just as valuable as time in the saddle.
What Past Challenge Participants Are Saying
I would like to share that I have enjoyed this very much and it has definitely helped me start the season off. It has also been beneficial to my mental health - it has helped me build a consistent approach and has given me inspiration to do things I wouldn't normally do.
My horse, Nellie and I, have loved doing the Winter to Spring 25 Challenge. It was highly motivational during the wet winter months and such an opportunity to think about the variety of activities I do with my beloved home-bred, home-produced mare.
I have really enjoyed the challenge as it really pushed me out of my comfort zone and I did things I wouldn't ordinarily do. Thank you so much for the inspiration and I look forward to future challenges with you.
