Pony Club announce Dodson & Horrell partnership to support education
The Pony Club have announced a new partnership with Dodson & Horrell to support the education and training of the organisations 30,000 members.
The partnership will allow The Pony Club to work with experts in the field of animal health, nutrition and well-being to continue the evolution of training within The Pony Club Badges and Pony Club Tests. Dodson & Horrell (D&H) continue to drive innovation in the equine feeding market and it is this expertise that makes it an incredibly important partnership for The PonyClub.
Exciting initiatives that Dodson & Horrell will be heavily involved in will include a brand-new D&H feeding badge that is designed to complement the existing PonyClub one. The new badge will be earned by developing further the horsemanship skills needed to care for horses and ponies to the highest standards. D&H will also be offering their expertise with feeding education and support for Pony Club members and centres across the country, this will be available to all horses and ponies, across the nine disciplines.
Dodson & Horrell will also be the title partner for the Great Pony Club Hacking Challenge, which encourages members to ride out of the arena and explore new areas of the countryside and local environment. By recording their rides and distances, members can work towards a certificate, celebrating their achievements. D&H and the Pony Club believe it is crucial for children to be challenged and encouraged to be adventurous with their ponies!
We welcome Dodson & Horrell into The Pony Club community, and we have some exciting projects planned together. One of the three critical strands to the purpose of The Pony Club is to promote and advance the education and understanding of young people in all matters relating to horsemanship and this is another way we will achieve this. It is also great to see that many of the Dodson & Horrell ambassadors have also been previous Pony Club members so we can celebrate their successes together.”
– Marcus Capel, CEO, The Pony Club.
We are absolutely thrilled to be joining forces with The Pony Club. It is the starting point for so many horse riders, including many of our own D&H team and fantastic brand ambassadors. Our two brands have so many shared values and we both are centred on supporting, educating and developing knowledge amongst horse owners and riders. With a combined experience of over 150 years, Dodson & Horrell and The Pony Club both have horses and ponies at the heart of everything they do, making our partnership a perfect match and we are excited to bring it to life!”
