A local opportunity

The Newmarket Pony Academy, established in 2021 at the British Racing school, is a community initiative aimed at providing young people in Newmarket with affordable access to horse riding and care.

Despite Newmarket’s rich equestrian heritage, many local children have limited opportunities to engage with horses. The NPA seeks to bridge this gap by offering programmes that combine equine activities with educational and personal development in key skills, such as confidence, resilience and overall engagement in learning.
