Training Times & Venue
- We no longer do beginner lessons but have hacking for all abilities instead, which happens multiple times a term at Squirrel Wood Equestrian Centre.
- We use Hill Farm Equestrian Centre for intermediate and advanced lessons with members of the club still receiving £5 off their lesson price as a subsidy. However there is not a fixed slot anymore and lessons are arranged by members themselves.
- BUCS team training happens at Weston Equestrian Centre on Wednesdays.
- Development team training happens at Weston Equestrian Centre on Thursdays.

Recent History
Competing has been better than ever last year, with our first team qualifying for the regionals for the first ever time and lots of individual placings being won by both our teams.
Our Christmas Ball is always a highlight, this year at Mr Postles Apothecary.
Attending Newmarket Races at the start of the year for the day!
Our beach ride and gymkhanas are always popular and a chance to wind down.
Ponies on the Square fundraiser is well attended, very cute shetland ponies loving the attention on the Square to raise money for the RDA.
Volunteering every week at our local RDA, helping give back to the community and help riding to be accessible for all.
