The National Minimum Wage increases on 1st October 2014.

The BGA is delighted to announce its new partnership with KBIS British Equestrian Insurance (KBIS) which will enable the introduction of the long awaited monthly payment for Personal Accident Insurance.

Do you travel abroad with your work as a groom? Have you considered what would happen if you got injured and ended up in hospital, or worse case scenario had to be transported home? 

The British Grooms Association (BGA) has proudly launched the Equine Employer’s Zone, the first ever online dedicated guide to employing staff in the equestrian industry. In addition it has further improved its commitment to offer support and engagement with employers by recruiting Tim Lord, proprietor of Berkshire Riding School, to the Board of Directors as the Employer’s Representative.

The BGA has so many members working at WEG 2014, too many to list here, but we wish them all lots of luck over the coming couple of weeks. BGA members work not just for Team GBR but also for AUS, IRE, JPN, USA etc etc...!
