Endurance GB suspends sponsorship negotiations
In view of current national and international sensitivities and pressures surrounding the sport of endurance, the Board of Endurance GB has announced the suspension of sponsorship negotiations with Meydan until further notice. Chairman John Hudson explained: “As a consequence of this decision,
we are unable to proceed with three rides scheduled for Euston Park in 2015. This decision does not affect other planned rides or activities and EGB will continue to offer a wide range of local, national and international rides at all levels throughout England and Wales.”

Industry award for talented young
carriage driver Flying the flag for British carriage driving, Mike Hodgson (19) from Congleton in Cheshire won the 2015 TSM Rider Award presented at the BETA Gala Dinner and Business Awards Evening 2015. Nominated by one of his sponsors (Abbey England), Mike (pictured in action) was delighted to receive the award which acknowledges riders who work closely with their sponsors helping them to promote their products and brand through advertising, marketing and PR.
Said Mike: “I am thrilled to have won. Balancing carriage driving with my university studies is hard work at times but I love the challenge.
“Working with Abbey England has been a lot of fun and I am proud to be involved with a company that plays such an important role in British manufacturing. Abbey driving bits are of exceptional quality and fit the ponies beautifully.”
Peter Phillips of Abbey England commented: “We started sponsoring Mike in 2011 and it is a pleasure working with him. He is always enthusiastic and nothing is too much trouble. He provides us with countless training features, participates in photo shoots and his next project is a series of ‘how to’ videos.”
