Weight Limit
Apologies for having to include this page on our web site however the Centre does have a weight limit of
12.5 stones for all riders.
The reason for this is two fold, first and foremost for the welfare of our horses, and secondly for the well being of our clients.
Sadly we have seen many riders (and non riders) who are simply obese, overweight and have little or no regard for the well being of their horses (and in some cases ponies), being blunt human beings have the choice when it comes to weight whereas horses don’t have the choice of who gets on, in our opinion this is simply not fair.
Now many people think they may be “about average” when it comes to weight, many people choose to ignore the fact that they are overweight bordering on obese, so, time for a reality check.
Be honest, the NHS are superb, so if in doubt or denial then click here.
Have a nice day now!
