About us
Houghton and Huntingdon Riding Club.
Houghton & Huntingdon Riding Club (HHRC) is a friendly club that caters for keen horse riders of all levels, who live in or around Huntingdon, a market town in Cambridgeshire, UK. It is part of Area 7 of the British Riding Clubs, and is affiliated the British Horse Society. HHRC teams compete in a number of dressage, show jumping, endurance and horse trials qualifiers throughout the year and we have lots of success making it through to championships and are frequently placed in the top rosettes. We pride ourselves on being an inclusive club and anyone that wants to be on a team will get a place on the team with no demands made on attendance at training sessions or other competition success. Whether you have a horse or pony or not, you can still become a member and have fun, as there is so much going on.
