Welcome to the British Equestrian Federation Community!
Welcome.... to the interactive community of the British Equestrian Federation, the recognised governing body of horse sports in the UK.

Visit the BEF Website
Equestrianism is one of Great Britain’s top five Olympic and Paralympic
sports, and one of the few sports where men and women compete on equal
terms. Great Britain has brought home hundreds of international medals
over the years and on a local level millions of people are involved with horses.
Riding is an extremely popular and healthy activity and the equestrian industry
continues to grow as a multi-million pound business.
Bringing together a wide range of sporting bodies and organisations,
the British Equestrian Federation (BEF) represents, supports and leads
equestrianism, from the local level to the international arena. Its Patron
is HRH the Duchess of Cornwall.
