Supporting our members in their efforts to achieve the highest level of repute, knowledge and profitability.

BETA

BETA was formed in 1978 and has grown to be recognised and accepted as the official representative body for the equestrian manufacturing,
wholesale and retail trade by Government and leading riding organisations.

We currently have over 800 member companies, covering a wide range of businesses including not only retailers, wholesalers and manufacturers, but also agents, dealers and many service based businesses. All our members are involved in some way with equestrianism.

We are committed to the promotion of BETA members to the riding public, to on-going market research to inform both our members and the wider equestrian industry on the state of the market and horse riding as a leisure activity.

🐴 Feed Fact Friday: Keeping Your Veteran Horse Thriving! ❄️
Welcome back to Feed Fact Friday! This is our weekly piece of advice on your horse`s diet, generously shared with us by our knowledgeable members and partners.

This week, we`re focusing on our wonderful veterans, with special thanks to @dodsonhorrell for sharing their expertise.

Older horses often need a little extra help to hold their weight and shine through the colder months. ❄️🐴

When choosing a feed for your veteran, look for:
🌾 High fibre and oil for condition
💪 Quality protein with lysine to support muscle
🌿 MSM, vitamin E and antioxidants for joint and immune health
🦷 Soft, soakable options for horses with dental issues
With the right nutrition, your veteran can stay happy and healthy all winter!

Today we honour armed forces members who have died in the line of duty, including the all animal heroes who stood bravely alongside our forces. 🐴🐾

Lest we forget their immeasurable contribution.
