The British Horse Society, together with The Byways and Bridleways Trust, The National Federation of Bridleway Associations, The Mendip Cross Trails Trust, and The South Pennine Packhorse Trails Trust are working together to campaign and lobby the government to provide greater equestrian off road access now.
To date ramblers and cyclists are enjoying an unprecedented increase in their rights of access, whilst very little progress has been made in securing equestrian access. We therefore consider that now is an opportune time to petition the Government for more equestrian access now. We therefore urge you to sign up to the Equestrian Access Now Petition, and to encourage all other horse riders to sign up as well. The link below will take you to a page on the Ride UK website, which gives full details of the petition and how to sign up to it.
