Hi folks,
I hope you are all well and looking forward to the weekend - my goodness the weeks are flying by! This Horse&Field newsletter brings you the latest local results, details of forthcoming shows and ongoing competitions and, of course, the all-important calendar of events!
The Horse&Field calendar lists local equine activities and is updated on a daily basis. After some weather disruptions recently, please do check before setting off to make sure that the competition you hope to attend is still running…
We are trying to make the calendar as comprehensive as possible, so if you know of any events that aren’t yet listed, please let us know!
To new subscribers, welcome! You will receive this newsletter twice each week, as well as occasional emails in between - we want to keep you informed, but do not want to overload your inbox!
