Membership gives a huge range of benefits to help you enjoy your life with horses. But more than that, membership is vital for helping us raise funds needed to improve access, safety, welfare and education for all.

  • Our caring team of experts and volunteers promote good care and prevent cruelty to hundreds of horses every year
  • Each year we campaign and protect hundreds of kilometres of local off-road equestrian routes that are threatened
  • Our dedicated team work tirelessly to make the world a safer place for horses, riders and carriage drivers
