Announcement of the 2017 Gow-Gates Club Development Grant Program recipients

The 2017 Gow-Gates Club Development Grant Program provided an opportunity for Clubs with a current EA State Branch Club Affiliation to access funding to assist with projects and initiatives focused on safety and risk management.

We were delighted to receive a high number of applications. Although, consequently, the funding sought exceeded the amount available.

In consultation with Gow-Gates, we prioritised the submissions that we believe most clearly demonstrated an outcome of consistent and sustained improved safety for horses and/or riders or enhanced risk management practices.

We congratulate the following clubs who have been awarded a grant for their planned safety initiatives.

Albany Equestrian Centre Association Inc WA
Eventing WA Promotions Inc WA
Goulburn Valley Horse Trials Association Pty Ltd VIC
Grafton Riding Club NSW
Heytesbury Pony Club Inc VIC
Park Ridge Active Riders Group (PRARG) QLD
Perth Horse Trials Association Inc WA
Riddells Creek Pony Club VIC
Serpentine Horse & Pony Club WA
Southern Hills Eventing Inc WA
Tamborine Equestrian Group QLD
Tonimbuk International Horse Trials Committee VIC
WAYER Inc. (West Australian Young Event Riders Inc) WA

We also acknowledge the support provided by Gow-Gates Insurance Brokers. It is the first time they have been involved in this program and we are very thankful for their interest in enabling improved safety standards at Equestrian Clubs throughout Australia and for their involvement in the program.
