WE were delighted to learn that just short of £1,050 was raised at the recent Northern Ireland Festival for the Air Ambulance Northern Ireland charity.

Riders, or in many cases riders’ parents, supported this fundraiser at the Cavan Equestrian Centre by having their weekend competition numbers laminated on site. We’re not sure if you had to have a number to compete, for free, in the hobby horse classes, but there were over 150 entries of all ages and everyone got a rosette.
