    H&H’s Pippa Roome then catches up with the H&H news team to discuss whether we’ll still be riding horses in 20 years and a new laminitis study.

    “If we don’t have social licences, we don’t have a sport” – H&H’s senior editor Eleanor Jones on the discussion around the future of riding horses
