British Eventing message to Owners

Dear Owners,

I wanted to take a moment to say a heartfelt thank you to all of you — the incredible owners who make British Eventing what it is. Your dedication, patience, and unwavering belief in your horses and riders truly underpin everything that happens in our sport.

We know that ownership in eventing isn’t about financial return — it’s about passion. It’s about early mornings, long drives, muddy boots, and the thrill of watching your horse and rider give their all across country. You invest not just your resources, but your hearts — and that commitment creates the magic we all feel at every event.

Your support brings horses, riders, and teams together; it builds friendships and keeps this sport alive. We’re endlessly grateful for your generosity and enthusiasm .

A special thank you also goes to the EOHA team Alex W, Alex VT, Tor and their teams. Your hospitality, kindness, and tireless help at events brings warmth and professionalism to every occasion.

From all of us — thank you for everything you do, and for sharing this wonderful sport with us.

Many thanks,

Rosie Williams OBE 

Chief Executive Officer, British Eventing
