November 10, 2025

A RIDING school in Somerset has appealed for help after seven horse saddles were stolen during an overnight raid.

Ridgeview Riding in Queen Camel near Yeovil was targeted by thieves in the early hours of Saturday.

The small riding school, which attracts many riders with disabilities, say the loss is “soul destroying”. But they want to get the word out to stop the stolen items being sold on the black market and to catch those responsible.
