Free…to a Good Home 28. January 2015 Robinsons Equestrian News (0) From February 2nd, we've decided to make the Advertising Boards at our stores a free service to all our retail customers. It provides us all with some great opportunities – but some restrictions will always apply... For as long as most of our customers at our Ashton store can remember, we've offered our visitors the chance to advertise horses for sale on a dedicated board around the till area, for a few quid a week. Over time, the idea grew until it included horseboxes for sale, puppies, lost pets, livery available and a wide variety of other things. [More]

Save 20% On Riding Hats and Skulls! 4. March 2014 Jillian.Deane@robinsonsequestrian.com News (0) Now’s a great time to replace your riding hat as for a limited time only, we’re offering 20% off the RRP of all riding hats and skulls online and instore. The most important piece of equestrian clothing is a riding hat. It’s mandatory for children under 14 years of age to wear protective headgear that’s fastened securely, when riding a horse on the road. The hat must be kitemarked to PAS 015 or EN 1384. Riding hats consist of a hard shell lined with shock absorbing material and provide vital protection for the rider's head should they fall from or be kicked by a horse. As well as wearing a riding hat at all times when riding, it’s also recommended to wear a riding hat while lungeing, or handling any horse from the ground. Riding hats should always be replaced immediately if they suffer a severe impact, whether this if from being dropped onto a hard surface or after a fall from a horse. Although no visible damage may be seen, any severe impact to the riding hat can result in diminished protection. In addition the protection offered by any riding hat diminishes over time as the padding inside becomes compressed. This is why riding hat should be routinely replaced every 4-5 years even if there are no visible signs of damage. You should never buy a second hand hat as there’s no way to be certain that any second hand riding hat, even if it looks intact, has not received a severe impact in the past that could result in diminished protection.20% Off Riding Hats & Skulls Online and Instore! So, if you haven’t replaced your riding hat following a fall, are wearing a riding hat that is more than 5 years old, or you’re wearing a riding hat you think might not fit you properly, this is your chance to purchase a new one at a discounted price! The offer is available online and instore until Sunday 14th September 2014.
