Luckily, the show field has a water supply but it will be in demand, so we are asking all exhibitors bring water too, as well as buckets and sponges. To ensure welfare of ponies and exhibitors, the following recommendations are in place. Keep ponies and people hydrated throughout the day.

We were deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Past President and well known and well respected breeder, Willie Allan of Millfield Highland Ponies. He passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by his family, on Saturday. He leaves behind a huge legacy in the Highland Pony world and has passed on his love of the breed to the next generation of Allans. Our thoughts are with Willie's family - his wife Jane, daughters Jennifer, Kathryn & Louise and their families. Willie's funeral will be held on Wednesday 2nd July, 12.30pm at Freuchie Parish Church followed by Falkland Cemetery 1.30pm.
