2009 Foal Registrations

As we are still waiting for confirmation of the changes to passports effective from 1 July 2009, Council have decided that applications for registration will be accepted on the old forms provided that they are received in the office by Wednesday 24 June 2009 at the latest, so that a passport can be issued before 1 July 2009.
If you wish to register your foal before 1 July, please submit your application as soon as possible so that any potential problems can be resolved before the deadline.

'The Fell Pony' DVD

The Fell Pony Society has made a DVD to aid the promotion of the breed. It features the Fell pony, at home amid breath taking scenery, on the fells in Cumbria, seeing them as they have been for hundreds of years, running on the ground that shaped the breed and made it what it is today, with interviews from some of the hill farmers that run the ponies on the fells, where they talk about the ponies and how they manage them on the open fells. The filming also follows the ponies performing in some of the spheres in which they excel and features the Fell Pony Stallion Show, the Breed Show, the Performance trials, Lowther driving trials and through to the ridden finals at Olympia. It shows the versatility of this wonderful breed and gives an insight into why it is so important for the breed to hold onto the remaining hill herds.

The DVD was filmed by Alan and Denise Tibbitts of DVX Productions with narration by Brian Blessed and together they have produced a film that will be of tremendous value to all with an interest in native ponies.

The DVD is available from the Fell Pony Society office at a cost of £15, plus £2 postage and packing for the UK and Europe, or £3 for the USA and Canada.
