Most importantly though, EGB and its Ride Organisers do everything they can to make Endurance as safe as possible for everyone, without adversely affecting people’s enjoyment.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022font-size: 16px;\u0022\u003eThe very mention of Health and Safety can strike terror into the hearts and minds of people! But this shouldn’t be the case. H\u0026S is basically just good common sense. Although H\u0026S is the responsibility of everyone involved at a Ride, there is a huge amount of experience, expertise and information available to help make it a safe and enjoyable event. \u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022font-size: 16px;\u0022\u003eEndurance GB has a dedicated H\u0026S Committee with strong Board representation, and a clear H\u0026S Policy and procedures containing lots of useful guidance for Ride Organisers that is updated at least annually. There is also a wide network of experienced H\u0026S Representatives across the country in every Endurance GB Group. Needless to say all Endurance GB activities are backed by comprehensive insurance for officials and volunteers, and 3rd party liability insurance for riders and crews,\u0026nbsp;currently through KBIS. \u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022font-size: 16px;\u0022\u003eWell before a Ride, the Organiser will have appointed a local H\u0026S Rep to oversee H\u0026S proceedings, completed a thorough Risk Assessment to identify the hazards that might affect riders, horses, crews, the general public and their belongings, and put in place measures to reduce the likelihood of these hazards causing anyone a problem. This Assessment is reviewed right up to Ride day, displayed at the Venue and checked again afterwards to see if lessons can be learned for the future. During the Ride \u003cspan class=\u0022GramE\u0022\u003eitself\u003c/span\u003e there will be professionally qualified First Aid cover at the Venue.

They weigh between 900 and 1100 lbs, can move at speeds of 40 miles an hour; have great agility, strong jaws and a powerful kick. Yet when you know a horse well or have confidence in your own horsemanship, the potential for danger is easy to overlook. \u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022font-size: 16px;\u0022\u003e\u0026nbsp;Endurance GB has a national Health and Safety Committee, made up of volunteers with expertise in this field; they do what they can to reduce the risk of injury to competitors, crew and members of the public at all our events through the review and maintenance of a Health and Safety Policy and the issue of advice. In the Groups more volunteers have been trained to take responsibility for health and safety at rides and training days. However they do not carry this burden alone. Everyone who turns up at an event is accountable for their own safety and the safety of others. Should you blatantly ignore that responsibility you can face prosecution.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022font-size: 16px;\u0022\u003e\u0026nbsp;We should all give consideration to health and safety at all times, and this starts when you plan to enter a ride. Part of the challenge of endurance is bringing on a new horse and finding a suitable first event can sometimes be difficult. Perhaps it is more risky to pick an event that has limited space at the venue or is staging an FEI at the same time as your pleasure class; or to take an ex-racehorse to a ride where there is a lot of open grassland. If it is a venue you have not been to then ask around or drop an email to the ride organiser. Getting it right means you and the horse have a great time and return safe and sound ready for the next event.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022font-size: 16px;\u0022\u003e\u0026nbsp;A few days before the event check your equipment is in good condition and your horse is well shod. I pack my vehicle the night before so I have time to remember things I have left out (I once turned up at a ride without a bridle – so embarrassing!). Other people use check lists. Make sure you know your route both to the venue and for the ride. A couple of hours with the map will give you confidence on the trail and avoid any problems if markers have gone astray. Make sure you leave in plenty of time, traffic at weekends can be unpredictable and Sundays are good days for the highways agency to close roads for maintenance.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022font-size: 20px;\u0022\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003cstrong\u003eHealth and Safety Checklist for Riders\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022font-size: 16px;\u0022\u003eCheck the ride is suitable for you and your horse.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022font-size: 16px;\u0022\u003eIf you suffer from any medical problems then complete an EGB Medical Form \u003ca href=\u0022https://egb.myclubhouse.co.uk/Client/Cms/Attachments/10/Medical%20Card.docx\u0022 data-file=\u00221\u0022 target=\u0022_blank\u0022 class=\u0022file-attachment\u0022\u003e\u003cem class=\u0022fas fa-file-download\u0022\u003e\u003c/em\u003e EGB Medical Form\u003c/a\u003e and leave with the Ride Secretary at the start of the ride.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022font-size: 16px;\u0022\u003eCheck equipment is in good working order and is fit for purpose.

Notices will be posted at the venue to alert you to any potential risks, please make sure you take a few minutes to read them. The full risk assessment is also available; if you are not familiar with this route then do have a look at it. If you are fortunate to have crew make sure you have selected crew points that are safe for them, you and other people using the area. Crew points have a potential for danger as, particularly when designated by the ride organiser, they may get crowded and you may have to wait a few moments to reach your vehicle, the constant flow of vehicles coming and going is also a hazard. Crew points are useful for tack and clothing adjustments but just be aware of what is happening around you. They can also be trigger points for frustration if a crew is not there. My crew will give a slosh to anyone who needs it, and I am grateful to those crews who are generous with slosh bottles when I need to scrounge one.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022font-size: 16px;\u0022\u003eThe trails are not exclusively for our use and you can encounter many different sights on your ride. Courtesy to all is a great motto and then hopefully we will be welcomed back. Maybe kind walkers will even hold a gate open for us. The etiquette for rides can sometimes be forgotten if you are chasing the time, your horse is not cooperating or you are wet and tired. Please remember to ask other riders if you can pass and to not gallop up behind another rider. Tail ribbons are warning signs that a horse can be more unpredictable than usual; if the track is narrow you may have to wait a few moments before you can pass. Keep an eye out for riders at gates further up the trail; a waving arm suggests they will leave the gate for you to close, please acknowledge them so they can get on. \u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022font-size: 16px;\u0022\u003eEvery rider has a duty to stop and help if another rider is in trouble: refusal to help may lead to elimination.

It is important to take care of your horse, complete your vetting and then tidy up around your vehicle before you relax and enjoy a sandwich or chat with friends. Horses should never be left unattended, even if in a trailer, but if you are on your own this may be a bit difficult. The area around the secretary’s tent and the butty van can get crowded, please take care with your horse in these areas. My horses seem to find ways to get lead ropes caught round trailer light fittings the second I turn my back; thankfully I have a crew who does not mind holding on to them. We also have various quick release ties and a large hay-net but it can be a bit of a nightmare sometimes.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022font-size: 16px;\u0022\u003eThankfully most of the Endurance GB events pass without incident, everyone has a good time and returns home in one piece.

As highlighted in the Government action plan, all who regulate and work in sport have a collective duty to come together to safeguard the health of our participants. As such, I’m delighted we’ve produced this guidance, which is relevant to those in elite equestrian sport as it is those interacting with horses for the first time.’\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022font-size: 12px;\u0022\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022font-size: 18px;\u0022\u003e\u003cspan style=\u0022font-size: 16px;\u0022\u003eAimed at participants at all levels of equestrian sport- including riders, parents, coaches, officials, medical personnel, event organisers and volunteers- the guidance document provides information to manage concussion, from time of injury through to a safe return to equestrian sport. This includes the stages of recovery following concussion and a standardised ‘return to riding’ programme, both which should be carried out in conjunction with advice from qualified medical practitioner or healthcare provider.
