About Hayfield
We are friendly, socially inclusive, make a point of providing equal opportunity and we have a history of being innovative leader in the horse world.
What connects our members who come from every walk of life is their loves horses and their appreciation for things natural and country life.Quite a few of our members don’t even ride but they recognise the sentiment echoed by Sir Winston Churchill when he said “There is something about the outside of a horse which is good for the inside of a person” and that is why they love coming up to see the horses and watching the riders having fun.
So here in the following pages you will get a feel for what kind of community Hayfield is.Equiworld Club Limited (SC230038) and Hayfield Riding Club which is a Community Amateur Sports Club are both separate entities but they share very similar objectives.
Equiworld Club owns facilities and its main purpose is to act as a professional managing agent delivering the objectives as stated in its articles which includes assisting other clubs, equestrian businesses and organisations to facilitate equestrian provision with professional expertise and confidence.
Hayfield Riding Club was formed specifically to deliver service to its members in the form of equestrian training only. For this reason Hayfield RC does not hold permanent assets but converts all income (as well as that gained from Gift Aid) into providing opportunity for its riding members.
Both clubs work in a symbiotic manner with Equiworld providing the base, horsepower and helps to provide instructors while the Hayfield Riding club concentrates on its members training, performance and competition needs.
