The Natural Horse Gathering brings you a day of demonstrations, lectures, networking, learning and sharing of things in the alternative and complementary horse world!
Time to bask in pure, unadulterated "natural" horse talk! Surely this is enough to have anyone reaching for the phone to book their ticket!
This is a unique event in the equine calendar. Whilst other events pay lip service to the alternative and complementary world, this day enables you to saturate yourself in it! Whatever your question, it is likely there will be someone there with the answer, or certainly an answer...
Demonstrations and mini lectures will be going on throughout the day to stimulate your heart, mind and imagination and to entertain.
Invitations & booking forms are going out now. If there's anyone you would really like to see there let us know and we'll see what we can do about it!
40 minute Demonstrations in the main arena
20 minute Lectures - Main Marquee
Delicious food and snacks provided by Vowley Farm, Westonbirt Ice Cream, and others
Take this time to make friends from around the country and put faces to names, voices or email addresses you might be in touch with already!
Networking opportunities Share ideas and strengthen your connection to the nationwide "natural" community.
As well as the familiar opportunities to ask experts about saddles, bits (or not!) and bridles, barefoot horses and boots, lotions and potions, training methods and behaviour shaping...
There are exhibition areas where professional individuals and businesses will be eager to meet you and assist with advice, information and ideas.
Dogs are welcome on a lead, please clean up after them.
... here's what was said about 2006's Gathering ...
Such a great day, so much to take in and see. See you all next year. - PJ
I just wanted to say that I had a wonderful day & to thank you for all your hard work putting it together. I met some lovely people who were all really supportive - Exhibitor
It was a superb show. I am just very annoyed that I didn't manage to organise anyone to help me and so I was stuck on my stand and missed out on such a feast of stuff. - CH
The exhibition areas are:
- The Exhibition Marquee
- The Healing Centre - where you can talk with professionals about alternative treatments and holistic horse care - you might even find time to try them out!
- The Understanding Equus Trainers Tent - where you can meet independant trainers and talk about your horse and their work.
- New Business Area - giving a prime space forum for businesses which share our philosophy and have been trading for 18 months or less.
- Delicious and wholesome refreshments for humans will be available again.
- The day is full of demonstrations and lectures.
