galloping start
More than £14,000 has been received in the first few
days since The British Horse Society launched its 2005 raffle
- with every pound making a real difference to the Society's
work.
The BHS's Chairman Patrick Print said: "I would urge
everyone who loves horses to take part in this raffle. We
will use all the money raised from the raffle to fund our
vital charitable activities such as preventing the neglect
and abuse of horses and ponies and defending and expanding
off-road riding."
Emma Day, Membership Senior Executive, said: "Our membership
helped us raise more than £50,000 last year through
the Raffle - money which is now hard at work improving the
lives of horses and riders.
"You don't have to be a member to take part, anyone
can buy tickets helping our work while also gaining the opportunity
to win one of the 23 fantastic prizes."
Prizes include one week's Spanish riding holiday for two
