The British Horse Society Scotland presents a compact but stunning 11th Borders Festival of the Horse
The unique Borders Festival of the Horse is taking place for the 11th time this year with 30 events running over 10 days starting with a varied programme on Friday 18th May. From jousting to jumping, incorporating working horses, equitation science and horse whispering and introducing clever donkeys and equestrian art 2012 promises to be a unique equestrian feast, as BHS Borders celebrates the place of the horse in local culture. For full press release click here or for all dates and events click above on 'Events' tab.

The Festival is an ongoing success as the equestrian industry provides rural regeneration in the
Borders and for Scotland’s economy as a whole. Last year over 10,000 horses and people took
part in the range of events which we held during The Festival.
Each year this booklet goes out to a 20,000 strong press run and it is distributed locally and
further afield. Last year we even had to print more such was the demand; people refer to it months
after the event has passed. The booklet showcases the Borders as Scotland’s Horse Country
and we would like as many local businesses as possible to feature in it.
Therefore, we are inviting you to return the attached form (click here), with a nominal fee of £10 payable to
BHS Scotland, to the below address. Then your information and contact details will be included in
the business listing in the BFOH 2012 Brochure.
