We are proud of our British Eventing Affiliation.

It takes approximately 120 volunteers to run each days event. That’s a massive challenge for Jane Whitaker to organise. It all starts as you enter the site, there’s 5 people assisting in the car park, 3 in the secretaries tent, 6 dressage judges, 6 writers, 6 arena stewards, 2 on tack check, and a chief dressage steward. Then in the show jumping there are 3 in the control box, an arena steward and a team of 5 or so picking up jump poles. After that and with approx 25 fences on the cross country course there’s a need for 40 fence judges, a starting crew of approx 4, and control another 4 and a chief steward. The scores from each discipline are collected by 3 motorbikes and taken to a team of 6 scorers to collate. On top off all this there are the caterers, drinks carriers, paramedics, human ambulance team, horse ambulance, vet, doctors, farriers, fence repair and BE officials. It’s a massive task and we can’t afford to pay everyone so we rely on the goodwill of clients, clubs, competitors and friends to volunteer for a role on the day. It’s a great way to get involved and we provide a packed lunch and drinks throughout the day, as well as a bottle of wine or voucher for our facilities as a thank you.
