The ABRS has Britain's longest established riding school approval scheme (since 1954). It is the only organisation solely representing professional riding school proprietors and is thus ideally placed to assist and guide young people seeking careers with horses. It has a wide ranging examination and testing system which enables teenagers to build up worthwhile gradings and certificates in preparation for leaving school and taking up full time training.

The Association of British Riding Schools is a Company Limited by Guarantee, registered in England, number 3186520.

Registered office: Queen's Chambers, Queen's Street, Penzance, Cornwall TR18 4BH.
