HorseHage, well-known for its dust-free bagged forage and Mollichaff range of chaffs and complete feeds, has announced it is to sponsor the Volunteers Club within British Riding Clubs (BRC).
The BRC movement represents over 33,000 horse owners and carers in over 460 clubs and centres which affiliate to the British Horse Society (BHS). Covering all disciplines from dressage to endurance riding, the organisation caters for all ages and abilities and offers a comprehensive training and assessment system which is aimed at improving the standards of horse care, riding and horsemanship skills through local and national programmes.
The Volunteers Club currently has 160 members and is open to all BRC members. These volunteers provide assistance in organising and running BRC events throughout the UK and are seen as a vital presence within the organisation.
Said Chris Tar of HorseHage: “We are very happy to be able to sponsor the BRC Volunteers Club. Many top riders will have started out as members of their local riding club and so it is important that we can encourage volunteers to help out at the many shows and events that take part throughout the year to enable grass roots riders and owners, young and old, to further their knowledge and take part in competitions.”
BRC Team Leader and Volunteer Co-Ordinator, Laura Sanger, is delighted to have HorseHage on board to help support BRC’s fabulous volunteers. “Without volunteers, BRC could not exist as it does. We rely on them to run all of our competitions, both locally and nationally and they also give up a huge amount of time to keep their clubs functioning. HorseHage is a well-known, quality brand and it’s great to have the opportunity to work with them.”
