ABRS+ at the Royal Highland Show 2026 🎤

We’re pleased to share that ABRS+ has been invited by horsescotland to take part in a panel discussion on riding school issues at the Royal Highland Show on 21 June 2026. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Representing ABRS+ will be Trustee and Equine Welfare Officer Ben Mayes, contributing to an important conversation around the opportunities and challenges facing riding schools and equestrian businesses today.

This is a valuable opportunity to ensure the voices of riding establishments - and the horses at the heart of them - are part of wider industry discussions.

We look forward to sharing insights from the day. 🐎
