We are a volunteer, community based not-for-profit organisation. We provide information, and education for all New Zealanders on and about equine related topics.
We create, collate and publish information, maps and resources for horse owners, riders, and drivers (carriage). We promote horse access to public recreation spaces, and educate on horse related issues.

Our Objectives
We promote greater participation in healthy equestrian recreation.
We educate on public safety around horses, and promote health and welfare of horses.
We research and publish information on the equine sector and equestrian community.
We provide information on places to ride, and work to improvie access to places to ride. We believe horse riders deserve improved access to recreation spaces and trails.
We want all equestrian clubs and organisations to work together to improve the profile of equestrian, and work with (not against) other sports and recreation clubs to improve everyone's share of recreation and sporting resources.
