Equestrian Access Groups

Taunton Deane Bridleways Association (TDBA) was formed with the aim of monitoring, protecting, improving and extending the bridleway network in the district.

To do this, TDBA liaise with the County Rights of Way department, landowners, neighbouring bridleway associations, the Somerset Local Access Forum, other user groups and The British Horse Society Access department.

Area covered: Taunton Deane, Somerset

The Trails Trust's primary objective is to develop strategic connected, accessible, safe, green infrastructure access and biodiversity networks that work for people and nature. TTT works for all non-motorised users through offering advice on and lobbying for the creation and improvement of access with biodiversity, developed by working with landowners and land managers, through a number of mechanisms. For the last four years TTT has been working with government (Defra) to research how access and biodiversity can be delivered in environmental land management planning.

Ulster Rural Riders Association (URRA) are a bridle group in Northern Ireland who organise safe off-road pleasure rides right across Northern Ireland.
